Identical twins are known as monozygotic twins in terms of medicine or genetics as they arise from the same egg and sperm cell. Although the same genome or DNA shared in to both embryo during development of fetus, epigenetic changes, surrounding, exposures, nutrition influence,imprinting mechanism make them different. This make the different gene expression pattern in identical twins. For a detailed review please read the following review paper(attaching the link).
What else can I help you with?
Is the goal of DNA fingerprinting to identify the DNA sequence of every gene?
false it is to show that no one person can have the same fingerprint as another except twins
What is a form of a gene that has slightly different sequence than other forms of the same gene but encodes the same type of rna or protein?
An allele is a form of a gene that has a slightly different sequence than other forms of the same gene but encodes the same type of RNA or protein. Alleles can result in variations in traits or characteristics in an organism.
What makes alleles of the same gene different from each other?
Alleles of the same gene have differences in their specific DNA sequences, which can result in changes in the protein that they code for. These genetic variations can lead to differences in traits or characteristics in organisms that possess different alleles of the same gene.
Why the chromosomes in twins are the same?
Twins can have identical chromosomes if they are monozygotic (identical twins) because they develop from a single fertilized egg that splits into two embryos. This results in both twins having the same genetic makeup and identical chromosomes.
Why is it important to know a gene sequence?
what is a practical or clinical use of knowing the base sequence of a gene

What is the effects of mutation?
A mutation is a permenent in DNA sequence of a gene,mutation in a gene's DNA sequence can alterthe aminoacid sequence of the protein encodedby the gene.

what is a practical or clinical use of knowing the base sequence of a gene
Different versions of the same gene are known as what?
Different versions of the same gene are known as alleles. Alleles can vary in their nucleotide sequence and can result in different traits or characteristics in an organism.
What are mixed chromosome twins?
A twin gene is called an Allele - One of two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and are found at the same place on a chromosome.
What are the ordered base pairs along a gene called?
Guanine and Cytosine, and Thymine and Adenine.
What are different versions of the same gene called?
Different versions of the same gene are called alleles. Alleles can differ in their DNA sequence, resulting in variations in the traits they encode for. These variations can lead to differences in an organism's phenotype.
What permanent change in the sequence of DNA in a gene is a?
Basically change in the DNA sequence of a gene is associated with change in the nucleotide sequence which may result in Mutation and may cause loss of function of that particular mutated gene.
Which mutation would not change the remainder of the reading frame of a gene sequence that follows the mutation?
A silent mutation, where a nucleotide substitution results in a codon that codes for the same amino acid, would not change the remainder of the reading frame of a gene sequence. This is because the amino acid sequence produced by the altered codon remains the same.
