Yes, but not monozygotic twins.
There are cases where a woman was impregnated by two (or more?) men very close in time to each other, and two ova were fertilized by different men. In that case black and white twins are quite possible.

No, faternal twins are created from two different egg cells. They have some similar genetic information however. Indentical twins on the other hand, would have identical fingerprints since they are created within one egg cell.
The black and white combination animals that might appear in a zoo listed as follows; * The Zebra * The Giant Panda * The Skunk * The Badger * The Polar Bear * The Colobus Monkey * The Penguin
No, not always. The offspring can be white, black, black and white or shades of both.
No. In order for them to be identical they needed to start off as the same cell and divide so at first their DNA is identical meaning they have the same sex. During development slight changes may occur but the sex always stays the same. Boy-girl twins are always two different cells meaning that they are not identical. The term for boy-girl twins is furturnal. You can however have boy-boy twins and girl-girl twins that are not identical and they are also called furternal. So basically, identical twins start off as one cell that divides and furternal are two individual cells. There is polar body twinning, that's when the egg splits before fertilization, and that can cause a male and a female. This is called semi identical twins or half twins. They share 75% of their genetic markers.
How do fraternal twins form? Answer one egg from each ovary is fertilized.
Another name for fraternal twins is dizygotic twins.
Fraternal twins are more popular.
There is no precise percentage of fraternal or identical twins but it is estimated that 2/3 of all twins are fraternal where as 1/3 of twins are identical.
identical twins are single egg twins. fraternal twins a two egg twins. fraternal
Fraternal twins can be the same sex or opposite sexes. It doesn't matter.
Yes, fraternal twins are perfectly normal.
fraternal twins have two different chromosomes
Fraternal twins are two siblings that have the same birth day, but do not look identical.
no
They are 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.
