The probability density functions are different in shape and the domain. The domain of the beta distribution is from 0 to 1, while the normal goes from negative infinite to positive infinity. The shape of the normal is always a symmetrical, bell shape with inflection points on either sides of the mean. The beta distribution can be a variety of shapes, symmetrical half circle, inverted (cup up) half circle, or asymmetrical shapes. Normal distribution has many applications in classical hypothesis testing. Beta has many applications in Bayesian analysis. The uniform distribution is considered a specialized case of the beta distribution. See related links.

What is difference between beta and alpha test Brief?
A brief explanation of the difference between beta and alpha test is that alpha test is usually in-house and is part of basic development. Beta test is right before product release and typically includes customer input.
Is the beta distribution is a special case of dirichlet distribution?
In a sense.Beta distributions are the marginal distributions of the Dirichlet distribution.
What is the difference between alpha and beta naphthol?
alpha naphthol with CCl4(carbon tetrachloride) gives blue colour whereas beta naphthol with CCl4 gives no colour. that is the distinction test between alpha and beta naphthol.
Is the beta distribution closed under convex combinations viz is the convex combination of two or more beta distributions also a beta distribution?
No. For a convex combination of distributions, the density is also a convex combination of the individual densities and one can easilly check that the convex combination of beta densities is not again a beta density.
How is it possible to convert normal distributions to the standard normal distribution?
use this link http://www.ltcconline.net/greenl/Courses/201/probdist/zScore.htm Say you start with 1000 observations from a standard normal distribution. Then the mean is 0 and the standard deviation is 1, ignoring sample error. If you multiply every observation by Beta and add Alpha, then the new results will have a mean of Alpha and a standard deviation of Beta. Or, do the reverse. Start with a normal distribution with mean Alpha and standard deviation Beta. Subtract Alpha from all observations and divide by Beta and you wind up with the standard normal distribution.
What is the difference between normal and sickle-cell hemoglobin based on?
terminal amino acid of the beta chain
Does this means that all symmetric distribution are normal Explain?
Don't know what "this" is, but all symmetric distributions are not normal. There are many distributions, discrete and continuous that are not normal. The uniform or binomial distributions are examples of discrete symmetric distibutions that are not normal. The uniform and the beta distribution with equal parameters are examples of a continuous distribution that is not normal. The uniform distribution can be discrete or continuous.
What has the author John Stager Foard written?

What is the difference between Gamma and Beta burns?
"beta burns" are shallow surface burns
How do you convert a beta probability density function to a beta frequency distribution?
probability density distribution
What is the difference between a beta plus particle and a beta minus particle?
The difference between a beta plus and beta minus particle is the electrical charge. The charges are equal, but opposite. The beta minus particle is an electron with a negative charge, while the beta plus particle is an anti-electron or positron with a positive charge.
What is the difference between normal rice and golden rice?
Golden rice produces significantly more beta-carotene (a precursor of vitamin A) than other varieties of rice. The beta-carotene also gives golden rice its distinctive color.
What is the difference between halo reach beta and the actual game on xbox live?
The Beta was used to test the game for Bungie.
What is difference between beta and alpha test Brief?

What the best conclusion concerning the difference between the S phases for beta and gamma is that?
gamma contains more DNA than Beta
