Genetic Variance. With the number of genes we get from our mom, exponentially factored into the genes we get from our dad, there are litterally Billions and Billions of different combinations.

Mutations also effect variance. This is when genes "change" during development.

EXCEPTION: Identical Twins. Identical twins have the same genetic makeup at birth, the environment changes how each particular child develops.

Humans do not look identical because of DNA - our DNA is inherited from two parents, so everybody gets a little bit different mix of genes that make us look slightly different.
