Do some normal probability distributions have different means and different standard deviations?
Yes. Normal (or Gaussian) distribution are parametric distributions and they are defined by two parameters: the mean and the variance (square of standard deviation). Each pair of these parameters gives rise to a different normal distribution. However, they can all be "re-parametrised" to the standard normal distribution using z-transformations. The standard normal distribution has mean 0 and variance 1.
What is the standard deviation of a standard normal distribution?
The standard deviation in a standard normal distribution is 1.
In the standard normal distribution the standard deviation is always what?
The standard deviation in a standard normal distribution is 1.
What is the difference between a general normal curve and a standard normal curve?
A standard normal distribution has a mean of zero and a standard deviation of 1. A normal distribution can have any real number as a mean and the standard deviation must be greater than zero.
In your own words describe the standard normal distribution?
The standard normal distribution is a special case normal distribution, which has a mean of zero and a standard deviation of one.
