While most of the systems in nature follows a bell curve, which is a distribution of that’s similar to the peaked distribution characterizing random networks. By looking at the society, we can find out that the most of the people fall in a range of height. The height of people are average out throughout the general population. (i.e. generally full-grown males fall into the range of 5-7 feet tall.) However, there are occasion in the normal bell curve distribution in different system. Instead of following bell curve, systems follow power law distribution.
