if you mean "fraternal" this means that 2 brothers are twins but do not look alike, identical means 2 twin brothers lokk exactly the same.
Identical twins are twins that develop from same egg. These twins have same genome, also they have same physical appearance with minimal differences.
Identical twins, due to the fact that the one fertilized egg splits, have identical DNA. Fraternal twins, since they are from separate eggs, have different DNA.
(Person that asked the question)-Once twins are born, and old enough to determine whether they are identical or fraternal, how do you know if they are identical, or just fraternal twins that look identical? I was just curious.
Generally, each person has his or her own genetic makeup. Identical twins can have a very similar DNA>
no.
If you mean identical, then yes. The Sedins are identical twins (Henrik was born first).
It is very unlikely that two brothers would have babies with the same DNA. That could only happen if identical twin brothers married identical twin sisters, and even then the mixing of DNA during reproduction makes this an extremely unlikely outcome.
Acctually, they're children would not look like twins. But all of their children would look like brothers and sisters.

Identical and Fraternal There are identical and fraternal. Fraternal twins happen when 2 different embryos start growing at the same time, so you get a brother and a sister or 2 sisters or 2 brothers that are the same age. Identical twins happen when 1 embryo splits into 2 embryos when it is only a few cells big, so both babies have the same genes.
The twins from the show Property Brothers are neither married or gay. Both brothers are single, although Jonathan has been married in the past.
Identical twins. Although horses sometimes have twins I'm not sure if they have identical twins.
If they were not then they would not be called identical twins!
Identical twins are formed from a single egg that splits into two. Fraternal twins are formed from two separate eggs that are both separately fertilized. So identical twins have identical DNA, and fraternal twins do not.
Twins are identical because they come from the same egg.
