A clone is produced by actually making an organism by scientific means of extracting a nucleus of the organism you want to clone, inserting it into an oocyte, and inserting that cell into a mother. An identical twin, on the other hand, is naturally born as a child of an organism.
What else can I help you with?
What is example of a clone?
All natural identical twins.
Why do you clone humans and why?
No human has yet been cloned. With the exception of identical twins.
What is a genetically identical individual called?
A clone.
How many different kid of twins are there?
there are two types of twins-- fraternal and identical. Fraternal twins are genetically unique, and they usually have physical differences. Identical twins are identically identical, such as a clone, and have exact physcial characteristics, excluding weight and scars etc.
Is the DNA in twins the same?
Twins can have very similar DNA, especially in identical twins who come from a single fertilized egg that splits into two. On the other hand, fraternal twins are no more similar genetically than any other siblings. Some slight genetic differences can arise due to mutations that happen after the initial egg fertilization.
Who are clones fraternal twins or identical twins?
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.
How are clones like identical twins?
An idenitcal twin has gens from both parents, a clone only has genes from one parent, or you take the nuculas from a body cell and put in nuculas from a different body cell, from some body elce, and put those together and you have a clone.
Are paternal twins identical?
I dont think there is such a thing as paternal twins...perhaps you are thinking of fraternal twins. In that case, they are not identical twins, they do not look the same and they can be different sexes.
Why are some twins identical and some not?
The reason why some twins are identical and some are not starts in utero. Identical twins occur when one egg is fertilized and it splits to create two embryos. Nonidentical twins come from different fertilized eggs.
Why wont the babies look the same if identical twins have babies with identical twins?
Because the mother identical twins each have a different husband . . . half of his characteristics show up in their babies.
Are twins born with different DNA?
Yes EVERYBODY has different DNA even if you are identical twins.
Do identical twins develop from two different eggs that are fertilized by different sperm?
No, fraternal twins do.
