It depends on the type of twins. For identical twins, it only takes one egg and one sperm, which split into two embryos.
Fraternal twins (or triplets+) are caused when two separate eggs are fertilized by two different sperm to produce two embryos.
It takes two sperm to make fraternal twins (boy and girl) to get into the egg but to make identical, it takes one sperm and the egg splits in two resulting in identical twins. This is why they are identical, because they are exactly from the same egg and have the same gender. If one sperm only gets in, there is chance of the egg splitting in two for identical twins but most likely a single baby . The reason only one sperm can get in is because after one has penetrated through the egg, the egg sends a wave that sends the sperm away. This is why having twins is more rare than having one baby.
Mono zygotic twins, frequently referred to as identical twins, occur when a single egg is fertilized by a single sperm, which then divides into two separate embryos.

Humans can produce over eight million unique gametes because of independent assortment of homologous chromosomes Human males can produce many billions of sperm during a lifetime However no two sper?
Although humans can produce over eight million unique gametes due to independent assortment of homologous chromosomes, human males can produce many billions of sperm during a lifetime because of continuous sperm production. However, no two sperm are exactly alike due to random genetic recombination during meiosis, leading to variability in each individual sperm cell's genetic composition.
How many chromosomes in human sperm cell?
