Inappropriate for who, or what? Without knowing what you mean by "inappropriate," your question can't be answered. The words "appropriate" and "inappropriate" have only situational meaning. That is, anything can be appropriate or inappropriate, depending on the situation. When the situation is left unqualified, the words "appropriate" and "inappropriate" become totally meaningless. For example, a sexy green dress would be appropriate for a cocktail party, but inappropriate for a funeral. So you cannot simply ask, "Is this dress appropriate?" You have to specify: "Is this dress appropriate for a cocktail party?" or "Is this dress appropriate for a funeral?" Or, "Is this movie inappropriate?" Inappropriate for who, or what? The question needs more information: "Is this movie inappropriate for an 8-year-old child?" or "Is this movie inappropriate to watch at my grandmother's 90th birthday party?" or "Is this movie inappropriate for a romantic night at home with my boyfriend?" In other words, nothing is simply "appropriate" or "inappropriate." Whether something is appropriate or inappropriate depends on the situation, which you have failed to provide.
Yes, that is correct- to relieve nausea and morning sickness.
This question cannot be answered, for two reasons. First, there is no universal standard for what is appropriate and inappropriate in any given situation. Since we do not know what you personally think is appropriate/inappropriate for a movie to show, we cannot answer. Furthermore, you didn't mention who or what the movie is inappropriate for. Is the Godfather 2 inappropriate for who, or for what purpose? The definitions of "appropriate" and "inappropriate" are: "suitable (or not suitable) for a particular person, purpose or occasion" (definitions from dictionary.com). Unless you specify what that particular person, purpose or occasion is, your question is meaningless. By definition, whether something is appropriate or inappropriate is dependent on what it's being used for. Anything can be appropriate or inappropriate, depending on what it's being used for. For example, a sexy green dress would be appropriate for a cocktail party, but inappropriate for a funeral. So you cannot simply ask, "Is this dress appropriate?" You have to specify: "Is this dress appropriate for a cocktail party?" or "Is this dress appropriate for a funeral?" Asking, "Is this movie inappropriate?" is the same as asking, "Is this movie suitable?" Suitable for who, or what? For example, "Is this joke inappropriate?" Inappropriate for who, or what? The question needs more information: "Is this joke inappropriate to tell a 6-year-old?" or "Is this joke inappropriate to tell at a job interview?" Or, "Is this movie inappropriate?" Inappropriate for who, or what? The question needs more information: "Is this movie inappropriate for an 8-year-old child?" or "Is this movie inappropriate to watch at my grandmother's 91st birthday party?" or "Is this movie inappropriate to watch with someone whose parents just died?"
Halloween II that is what I think they reapeat a lot of inappropriate stuff. ALot of blood and gore.
Because it failed to test the drug for its affects on developing embryos, even though it was targeted to be given to pregnant mothers to prevent morning sickness.
Dr.R.Kunz and Dr.H.Keller invented thalidomide in Germany
They tested the drug on animals, which was not a very good thing to do research wise either way, but on top of that, they didn't test it on pregnant animals.
Thalidomide was supposed to be an effective sedative for pregnant women, but thalidomide caused birth defects and peripheral neuropathy.

Thalidomide was before used to prevent pregnancy nausea (it was also later discovered that it caused birth defects and was thus banned), but after more research and testing they discovered the positive effects it had on patients with Hansen's disease/Leprosy, and the drug was reintroduced (women have to take a pregnancy test before having it prescribed)
Thalidomide regulates the immune response by suppressing a protein, tumor necrosis factor alpha.
Thalidomide leads to the forming of deformed and flipper like limbs in babies.
Pro: living organism model Con: violates the animal's rights inefficient and ineffective, their anatomy and biological reactions are not the same (look up the thalidomide tragedy)
