There are identical and fraternal.
Fraternal twins happen when 2 different embryos start growing at the same time, so you get a brother and a sister or 2 sisters or 2 brothers that are the same age.
Identical twins happen when 1 embryo splits into 2 embryos when it is only a few cells big, so both babies have the same genes.
what are the two kinds of twins
If there are two twins, the answer is 2 If there are two sets of twins the aswer is 4
Separation of cells at the two-cell stage following fertilization can lead to the development of identical twins, also known as monozygotic twins. This happens when the cells remain separate and each develops into a separate individual with the same genetic makeup.
Two lots of twins are commonly referred to as two sets of twins.

No, the correct term is "twins." "Two twins" is redundant because twins refers to a pair of siblings born from the same pregnancy.
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.
Identical twins come from one egg and one sperm. Fraternal twins come from two eggs and two sperm.
Generally fraternal twins are more common. For fraternal twins to occur twins must diverge, but differentiate upon becoming separate entities. Identical twins are rarer, in which the two siblings are of the same gender and are exactly alike upon birth. Rarer so are conjoined, or "Siamese" twins. This occurs when twins are born partially or extremely fused together. There is only a 25% survival chance for a conjoined twin. Most were only connected by gristle and flesh, and could have been easily separated easily, were they in modern society.
Female twins that are not identical are called fraternal twins. Fraternal twins occur when two separate eggs are fertilized by two separate sperm. Maternal twins refer to twins that share the same mother but can include both identical and fraternal twins.
