Very simple they have at least one parent that their from. Stepbrothers and stepsisters share genes from at least one parent.
Through sexual reproduction a great deal of diversity is added to the gene pool. This is one of the basic reasons sexual reproduction is so successful. While siblings share some of the same genes as other individuals - they are in fact different and only share a limited number of genes.
The genes that are carried on the same chromosome are called as the linked genes.
Genes on the same chromosome are said to be linked.
This claim is incorrect; no two people, whether completely unrelated or identical sibling, has the same fingerprint. This is because your fingerprint is mutually exclusive to any genetic factor; your fingerprint is caused as a result of your experience in the womb, not your genes.
No, the two clones have the same genes.
Genes alter our looks and physique, not every sibling has the same genes and therefore they look different. Each sibling has a different combanation of genes some from the father and some form the mother but they wont look the same because unless they are identical twins, thay each have unique combination of alleles.
You and your siblings share parents. Every time a child is conceived that child receives half of the mother's DNA (genes) and half of the father's genes. If the same mother and father have more than one child, they still only have the same genes to contribute, but they might be mixed in different combinations. That is why you resemble your brothers and sisters, but probably don't look exactly alike.

Such an event is highly impossible because siblings receive the same set of genes from their parents. The slight differences in their DNA is due to allelic differences and due to recombinational events. However, no such event can cause a total mismatch of the DNA of two siblings from the same parents.
Polygenic means many genes are influencing one trait. So, the inheritance of this gives you are all sorts of combination of genes that are expressed in various phenotypes. As example think of the different heights of siblings. There are 5 to 7 genes that influence height and in the same relative environment of siblings you get many combinations of those genes which express themselves in different height same sex siblings.

a similar but not identical combination of genes.
Genes on the same chromosome are said to be linked.
Because they have similar, but not identical, combination of genes.
only twins have the same genes (all twins)
genes genes
no, it has the exact same amount of genes as the original, and the genes are exactly the same
