They are half siblings.
If you have the same mother but different fathers, you are considered half-siblings. This means you share 50% of your genetic material from your mother. Full siblings, on the other hand, share both parents, resulting in a closer genetic relationship. In summary, having the same mother and different fathers makes you half-siblings.
Individuals who share the same mother but have different fathers are known as half-siblings. They are related through their mother but only share one biological parent.
Your half-brothers and half-sisters (half-siblings) are called half because instead of having the same mother and the same father as you, you have only one parent in common. Thus, you have half the common parentage that full siblings have. Half-siblings have the same father and different mothers, or the saem mother and different fathers.
Same Mother, Different Fathers ... Half Siblings:Yes, if you have the same mother but different fathers then you are half brothers or half sisters. However, if you and another sibling had the same father then you are not half siblings but brother and sister. It's the gene pool so it doesn't matter if your mother gave birth to you or not, if it's a different father then you are a half brother or half sister.No, if you have the same mother, you are not half siblings, only if you have different fathers, you are a half siblings. Nothing from the womb is half.Obviously the person who answered the question above is not very educated. This seems to be a misconception among the black community, (no offense... I'm half black myself). It doesn't matter if siblings share the same biological mother or father because you receive half your DNA from your mother and half from your father. So, to answer your question... it doesn't matter if you share the same mother or father, you're half siblings either way. Looks like the person above was sleeping in their science class or just a victim of misinformation.
It is possible for two siblings to have different biological fathers, a situation known as heteropaternal superfecundation. This can occur when a woman ovulates multiple eggs and has intercourse with different partners within a short timeframe. In this case, while rare, it is possible for both sisters to have the same mother but different fathers. Confirmation through DNA testing can provide definitive answers.
I believe that if you have the same dad then you are not half bro/sis. I believe that it is the dna of the father that determines biological siblings. I have five children with my husband and three of them have different mothers and I tell them all the time that they are NOT step anything or half anything because they all have the same dad. That's my story and I am sticking to it unless the world of medicine proves me wrong:)
Sid is Tom Sawyer's half brother because they share one parent in common - their mother. They have different fathers, which makes them half siblings.
NO! You cant force half children to have a relationship.
Jessie Evers was his mother and his fathers name was James Evers. He also had 5 siblings.
If you have different fathers, you may be related if you share some other ancestor, such as a mother, a grandparent, great grandparent, etc.
They have the same mother and different fathers.
Your half siblings. My best friend's mom married before she got married to the man she is married to right now and now my best friend has 2 half brothers.
