The value maximum ordinate of a standard normal curve at Z = 0 is:________?
Correct answer: C. 0.3989
- A. 1
- B. 0.5
- C. 0.3989
- D. None of these

The standard normal density is highest at its centre, Z = 0, where its ordinate is 1 divided by √(2π), approximately 0.3989. This is a density height, not an area or probability.
