3 identical twins and 55million non-identical....hope it will help
Around 40million twins have been born Around 40million twins have been born
there were over 6500 a year
It is approximately 1:750000 so approximately 177 sets of quads are born each year however many of these are reduced to triplets or twins due to complications.
As of 2006, on average there were over 137,000 twins born in the U.S. every year.
In conjoined twins or infant twins with health complications usually die within hours, days or weeks of one another. Most twins that live a full life do not necessarily die the same day, week, month or year and not always the same circumstances. It is a very small percentage that die within the same year due to extreme grief/depression. Some unusual co-incidences like twins that die the same day from unrelated road accidents or heart attacks have happened but very rare. In general each twin even though they are born the same day, will have a different death dates.
A female moose usually calves once per year, and has one calf at a time, twins are rare.
Naturally conceived twins occur in approx. 1 in 89 births Identical twins are much more rare than fraternal. They occur in approximately 1 in 250 births. There are things that can increase your chances of having a multiple birth, including a mother being 30 or over when she conceives. For example, while there is a 3% chance of having a multiple birth at age 25-29, it increases to 4% at 30-34 years and almost 5% at 35-39 years. Other factors that can increase your chances of having twins include having a maternal family history of multiple births (fraternal), and of course, using fertility treatments (in vitro fertilization or fertility drugs). Your chance of having twins is also influenced by your race (multiples are more common in African Americans and least common in Hispanics and Asians), how many times you have been pregnant (the chance of having twins increases with each pregnancy), and whether or not you have had twins already.
Since 1989 there have been an average of 56,136 sets of twins born each year in the US.

how many twins are born inMaryland each year
Assuming their are no mutations the twins wold both have 46 chromosomes. Twins, have the normal number of chromosomes, the only difference between an set of identical twins and two average individual is that twins have identical DNA.
fraternal and identical
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.

First one comes out and then the other. Usually through either the normal passage way, or a cesarean cut.
Eye colour is caused by genetics whereas the weight of a person depends on how they life their life (how healthily they eat or how much exercise they do) so it is an environmental variation. Identical twins have the same genes so have the same eye colour.
One for most women. Those who are on fertility drugs & those who have Fraternal (not identical) twins are the exception.
Identical and fraternal twins typically share many similar characteristics
It depends on the type of twins If It was identical (monozygotic) twins, one egg is fertilized (As you can see, identical twins have similarity in phenotype (the observable characteristic of an organism) because of development of one zygote divided into two embryos) but if it was non-identical twins, two eggs or more (such as triplets or quadruplets) are fertilized. The twins have differences in phenotype
