Entailment: The normal distribution is the most important probability distribution in statistics because it fits many natural phenomena. For example, the heights, weights, measurement error, IQ scores and blood pressure. Many people, especially the old ones tend to set aside small things that later on have a great impact in their life especially in their health, just like their blood sugar and blood pressure. As an individual, how can you help your body in maintaining or in being physically fit? How can you make yourself be emotionally, spiritually, physically and mentally healthy especially this time of the pandemic?

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
