When graphed, the data creates a bell curve.
When graphed, the data creates a bell curve.

The frequencies for the first and last height range are the same.
The frequencies for the first and last height range are the same.

When graphed, the data creates a straight line.
When graphed, the data creates a straight line.

The frequencies for each height range are different.
The frequencies for each height range are different.

The correct response is:

When graphed, the data creates a bell curve.

A normal distribution is characterized by a bell-shaped curve when the data is graphed, indicating that most of the data points cluster around the mean, with fewer data points at the extremes.
