Statistics is based on probability theory so each and every development in statistics used probability theory.
Probability theory and distributive theory.
All the time. Statistic is based on the application of probability theory!
Statistics consists of Descriptive Statistics,Probability theory,Distribution theory,Quality Control, Design of Experiments, Reliability, Operations Research, Queuing theory, Inventory control,Measure theory, Sampling theory, Statistical inference, Analysis.
Yes; the p value used in hypothesis testing is probability. See the related link.

I can not give you a simple answer. It is very individual and subjective. I will assume that you are referring to probability theory. Statistics is based on an understanding of probability theory. Many professions require basic understanding of statistics. So, in these cases, it is important. Probability theory goes beyond mathematics. It involves logic and reasoning abilities. Marketing and politics have one thing in common, biased statistics. I believe since you are exposed to so many statistics, a basic understanding of this area allows more critical thinking. The book "How to lie with statistics" is a classic and still in print. So, while many people would probably say that probability theory has little importance in their lives, perhaps in some cases if they knew more, it would have more importance.
One subject they're important in is physics. Statistics play such a big role in thermal dynamics that it is often referred to as statistical mechanics. Also, probability theory uses statistics as its base and quantum mechanics is all about probability.
Statistics is based on the theoretical foundation of probability.
Probability is the theoretical basis that underpins statistics.
Sl.no Probability Statistics 01 Probability deals with predicting the likelihood of future events statisticsinvolves the analysis of the frequency of past events 02 Probability is primarily a theoretical branch of mathematics, which studies the consequences of mathematical definitions Statistics is primarily an applied branch of mathematics, which tries to make sense of observations in the real world. 03 probability theory enables us to find the consequences of a given ideal world Statistical theory enables us to measure the extent to which our world is ideal.
