Question

what is the characteristis of the normal curve and what human trait or behavior is distributed normally?

Expert Solution

Step 1: Description of characteristics of normal curve:

A normal distribution is a bell-shaped frequency distribution curve in which an equal amount of extreme scores should fall on both sides of the mean.

Normal distributions are symmetric, unimodal, and asymptotic and the mean, median, and mode are all equal.
