No, they have separate nervous systems. However the circulatory and digestive tracts ae intelocked and in series, so to speak. One has digestive problems, so does the other.
No. Conjoined twins always have separate brains.
Conjoined twins cannot be bred. This condition is not genetic.A set of male conjoined twins fathering children with a set of female conjoined twins will almost certainly produce children who are not even twins at all.
Conjoined twins or siamese twins.
There is no genetic component that results in conjoined twins. They are created by an imperfect separation of identical twin concepti.
Chang and Eng Bunker
Dr. Ben Carson, at the Johns Hopkins University medical school, is perhaps the most celebrated and noted surgeon for separating conjoined twins.
If they share a brain then they only have one set of thoughts.
Twins that are born connected are called conjoined twins. There are different kinds of conjoined twins, including thoracopagus, omphalopagus, and craniophagus twins, While thoracopagus twins are connected at the torso's top portion and can share one heart, omphalopagus twins are joined from the breastbone to the waist and share a liver. Craniophagus twins are connected at the head region.
The term is "Siamese" twins and they are twins who are conjoined. Usually they share a vital organ or two making surgical separation impossible. They get their name from the original conjoined twins, Chang and Eng Bunker who were from the country of Siam.
Conjoined twins are basically two beings made from the one egg or cell, and this egg has not broken apart properly, and so the twins have been fused together. They may share the same organs - like brain, shoulder, heart, leg...etc. Sometimes they are separated in order to be able to live separate lives.

The most famous (Chinese) conjoined twins were the Siamese twins
conjoined twins are very very very rare .
In the development process, either the egg didn't completely split, or they joined together at some point. Typically conjoined twins share one or more body systems. Usually they have a common circulation system. Depending on what organs or systems they share, they may be able to be split apart.
conjoined twins that usually share a heart, liver and some parts of the digestive system
why can't conjoined twins be brothers and sisters
just that they are conjoined, or joined together by a body part. if they are conjoined at the head, it could causes brain damage and depending on how much of a brain they share they will have to do surgery and during the surgery one of the babies will die. if it is not too severe, a quick separation won't do anything, but could causes mental problems during birth. i am not sure what happens by being conjoined at the heart, though. i think that is either impossible, or the baby(ies) is born dead.
The twins were conjoined when they were born.
