When p is not equal to 0.5,the binomial distribution is not symmetrical; however,the closer the p is to 0.5 and the larger the sample size,the more symmetrical the distribution is.

This statement is true. When p is not equal to 0.5, the binomial distribution is skewed towards the side where the probability is higher. However, as p gets closer to 0.5 and the sample size gets larger, the distribution becomes more symmetrical. This is known as the normal approximation to the binomial distribution.
