Let n be any number and n/n = 1 and n1/n1 = n1-1 which is n0 that must equal 1
The answer depends on how the sample is selected. If it is a simple random sample, of size n, then it is distributed approximately normally with the same mean as the population mean.The answer depends on how the sample is selected.

The n-1 indicates that the calculation is being expanded from a sample of a population to the entire population. Bessel's correction(the use of n − 1 instead of n in the formula) is where n is the number of observations in a sample: it corrects the bias in the estimation of the population variance, and some (but not all) of the bias in the estimation of the population standard deviation. That is, when estimating the population variance and standard deviation from a sample when the population mean is unknown, the sample variance is a biased estimator of the population variance, and systematically underestimates it.
n is the number of subjects, things, whatever, in your sample. It's your sample size. If you have a sample of 11 people you chose from a population, n=11. Or maybe if typo Pace.
The formula for calculating the standard error (or some call it the standard deviation) is almost the same as for the population; except the denominator in the equation is n-1, not N (n = number in your sample, N = number in population). See the formulas in the related link.
