Choose the correct answer below. OA. Yes, because the distribution is symmetric. OB. No, because the total probability is not equal to 1. C. Yes, because the probabilities sum to 1 and are all between 0 and 1, inclusive. OD. No, because some of the probabilities have values greater than 1 or less than 0.
