Expert Solution
Step 1

The normal distribution  in the center are generally denser and basically less denser at tails. There are two parameters for defining the normal distribution are the mean and standard deviation. The normal distribution curve is defined as the continuous of the probability distribution that is generally symmetrical on both sides of mean that is the right side of the center is a mirror image of the left side.
