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 examples are there for a theoretical probability of 100?
No probability - theoretical or not - can be 100. Therefore no examples are possible.No probability - theoretical or not - can be 100.

What is the 'and' rule in probability?
If the probability of A is p1 and probability of B is p2 where A and B are independent events or outcomes, then the probability of both A and B occurring is p1 x p2. See related link for examples.

What are some examples of distribution function?
I will assume that you are asking about probability distribution functions. There are two types: discrete and continuous. Some might argue that a third type exists, which is a mix of discrete and continuous distributions. When representing discrete random variables, the probability distribution is probability mass function or "pmf." For continuous distributions, the theoretical distribution is the probability density function or "pdf." Some textbooks will call pmf's as discrete probability distributions. Common pmf's are binomial, multinomial, uniform discrete and Poisson. Common pdf's are the uniform, normal, log-normal, and exponential. Two common pdf's used in sample size, hypothesis testing and confidence intervals are the "t distribution" and the chi-square. Finally, the F distribution is used in more advanced hypothesis testing and regression.

The Binomial Probability DistributionA binomial experiment is one that possesses the following properties:On this page...Mean and variance of a binomial distributionThe experiment consists of n repeated trials;Each trial results in an outcome that may be classified as a success or a failure (hence the name, binomial);The probability of a success, denoted by p, remains constant from trial to trial and repeated trials are independent.The number of successes X in n trials of a binomial experiment is called a binomial random variable.The probability distribution of the random variable X is called a binomial distribution, and is given by the formula:P(X) = Cnxpxqn−xwheren = the number of trialsx = 0, 1, 2, ... np = the probability of success in a single trialq = the probability of failure in a single trial(i.e. q = 1 − p)Cnx is a combinationP(X) gives the probability of successes in n binomial trials.Mean and Variance of Binomial DistributionIf p is the probability of success and q is the probability of failure in a binomial trial, then the expected number of successes in n trials (i.e. the mean value of the binomial distribution) isE(X) = μ = npThe variance of the binomial distribution isV(X) = σ2 = npqNote: In a binomial distribution, only 2 parameters, namely n and p, are needed to determine the probability.EXAMPLE 1Image sourceA die is tossed 3 times.

What are 3 examples of discrete variation in humans?
From a purist point of view, there is probably only a few true examples of discrete variation in humans. However, we have the common sense practical real world ways to describe some things as discrete. A coma scale used, Glasgow, is discrete. Also, vision is expressed as discrete values. See attached related links. In addition, number of seizures is discrete along with pulse (heart) rate.
