Fraternal twins each have their own umbilical cord, just like they have their own sac. The two of them are just the same as two siblings with the same birth date.

Do twins share the same umbilical cord?

Fraternal (non-identical) do not share the same placenta as they are two babies formed from two eggs and two sperm. If they implant close together they may appear to be one placenta, but they are not. Identical twins formed from one egg and one sperm may split at any stage from the two cell right up to late in embryonic development which produces conjoined (Siamese) twins. The later in embryonic development the split occurs the more likely they are to share a placent.

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.
