It literally means "same egg". The term is used to refer to multiple births (twins, triplets etc.) It is a fancy way to say identical twins. Heterozygous twins did not develop from the same egg but two (or more) different eggs. They are also called fraternal twins.
The same as Siamese twins. The egg splits as if to create identical twins, but it doesn't split all the way.
No one has the same fingerprints. That's just the way of genetics. Identical twins look exactly the like, but their DNA isn't 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.
Acquired basically means what you've gotten after birth. Twins who grow up together tends to be raised the same way, go to the same schools ASO, so they often share a lot acquired traits. But as they get older, their personalities usually begin to develop in different directions, and with that, they start getting different acquired traits as well.

Non-identical twins are formed only when there are two or more separate egg cells produced by the ovary, they will remain in the fallopian tube until fertilized by a sperm cell or when menstruation occurs
well you do need a way to tell them apart...
Just that, female conjoined twins. In some languages all nouns have gender, so in French, Les Jumelles Siamesienne, the enne suffix would mean female. By the way, conjoined twins, being also identical twins, are always the same gender.
boy, girl and simese twins Siamese twins are now properly called conjoined twins. You can have identical twins[ same sex] , fraternal twins [ one male , one female ]. triplets, same way, quadruplets, quintuplists , sextuplets and so on , with fertility drugs.
Identical twins are identical because they both came from the same egg. The term "Identical" is used as they look very much like each other and anybody can say that they are twins by just looking at them.
Human identical twins have the same DNA (e.g. identical genotype), but generally have slightly different phenotypes. In this way, you are in fact able to tell twins apart with some study of their features. While their DNA is identical (more or less), they do develop on their own after separation and on through life, making their outward appearances (or phenotype) slightly different. In non-human species, this can be more difficult to discern, but the same does still apply.
