Monolingual examples (not verified by PONS Editors)
Students should be tested against a fixed yardstick, rather than against each other or sorted into a mathematical bell curve.
en.wikipedia.org
If there is no canalization of a developmental pathway, genetic variation of pathway components results in a continuous spectrum of phenotypes, often distributed in a bell curve.
en.wikipedia.org
To visualize this motivation, imagine printing out a simple bell curve and throwing darts at it.
en.wikipedia.org
It is obtained by letting the bell curve slide along the "x" -axis, calculating the mean at every location.

Many research and clinical examples exist in the literature that show the use of melting curve analysis to obviate or complement sequencing efforts, and thus reduce costs.
