Answer:

C. Taking blood samples from patients for research purposes

without consent

Explanation:

Generally, providers may not render medical services without the patient’s consent, unless performance of emergency, lifesaving care is necessary. Taking samples from a patient is a type of medical service; thus, state consent laws apply. In addition, providers may not disclose PHI without patient authorization.

It depends on the definition of unethical being used, however I think I am right. I'm in AP bio currently. Let me know what the answer is :)
