If you are an experienced model then you'll need to submit your professional headshot and/or comp card. However, if you are a new model with little to no experience, agencies prefer to receive clear, digital, non professional snapshots of your face and full body, including profiles.

I believe the standard size for that is 8x10.
You'll have to send your headshot and photos to modeling agencies that represent the type of modeling you meet the requirements for. It is best to look into agencies that are within a 2 hour's drive of where you live. Check out the agency websites, which will give you information about what kind of photos to send, if they hold open casting calls, and how to send them (snail mail, email, etc).
The best way to approach modeling is to have a contract and be represented by a professional modeling agency, whose job it is to find work for you. Visit modeling agency websites and see what photos they require and send in your pictures and information or attend an open casting call if the agency is holding one.
If they are snapshots, 5"x7" is ideal. If they are professional photos, the preferred size is 8"x10".
Model scouts approach potential talent on the street, face-to-face so you cannot send the scouts your photos. If you are not discovered by a model scout while out and about in your city, then you will need to submit your photos to the actual modeling agency's office. You can send photos via snail mail, email or by attaching the images to the agency's online form.
I'm not sure what you mean by an example of modeling but all aspiring and new models should send their photos to legitimate modeling agencies.
First create a resume about yourself. Then send it in or email it to the modeling agency you prefer many agencies have websites which have the address or email of the agency
The best way to find professional modeling jobs is to be signed to a legit and reputable modeling agency in your area. This link shows a list of modeling agencies in Tennessee.

If you aren't scouted by someone from a modeling agency, then the alternative would be to submit to local agencies by sending in your photos and stats. It's best to do an online search for agency websites. Each one will list instructions or guidelines as to what materials you should send in. Or you can attend an open call at the agency's office (if they offer them this info will be on the website) so you can be evaluated by the agency staff without the need for an appointment. So there are a number of ways to get discovered/started in modeling.
No. The only websites you need to deal with should be modeling agency websites, which will give you the information on how to send in your pictures and information.
Go online and search for modeling agencies in your state that have a baby division. Not all modeling agencies represent children and babies so make sure to check out each website to see what the requirements are and what photos to send in. http://www.joeedelman.com/agencies/agency_va.php
You should do an online search for modeling agencies within a 2 hour's drive from where you live. It is best to deal with local agencies. Check each agency's website to first find out if they represent child models. If they don't, do not submit your child's photos. For the ones that do, the agency's websites will list instructions and guidelines for how to submit your child and what types of photos they are looking for.
You have to have exposure to modeling agencies. Once you sign a modeling contract, you will be able to book photoshoots and other types of work. It is best to seek out the websites of local modeling agencies near you and see what their requirements are and what instructions to follow in order to send in your pictures and information. Do not spend money on a portfolio or professional pictures until you find out if this is what the agency wants. Many ask for digital, non professional photos instead of professional images. You'll want to have a headshot, 3/4 shot, and a full body shot at a minimum. Send your information and photos to more than one agency to increase your odds of getting an interview.
