When you are graphing some quantity, in many cases you will wind up with a curve that is shaped like a bell, in other words, the graph gradually rises, then rises more sharply, then flattens out and declines in a symmetrical pattern, the same way that it rose. This reflects the fact that a great many things have a normal range, and so the quantity of that item peaks in the normal range and then declines as you get either more or less than the peak, and furthermore, the pattern does tend to form that distinctive bell shape. You could, for example, do a chart of the annual income of American families. Some have very high income, some have very low income, and most fall in the intermediate range. But you could do the same thing with endless numbers of other topics. If you were to capture pigeons and make accurate measurements of the lengths of their beaks, and then graph the results, you would get a bell curve. You could graph the weight of pet cats, or the cost of sweaters, or the age of houses, and so forth. Most things will produce some kind of bell curve.

What is a bell curve?
A bell curve is a symmetrical bell-shaped graph curve that represents the arrangement of values, how often something occurs, or probability of occurance of a set of data. It slopes downward from a point in the middle corresponding to the average also called mean value, or the maximum probability. Gather all the results of an IQ test and make a graph of them, would create a bell curve with average IQ being the mean value. The more results or values, the better the bell curve. It can be made with a line graph or a bar graph.
