When an egg is fertilized by a sperm, it becomes a zygote. That zygote goes through cell division to become an embryo.
Sometimes, the zygote splits and becomes two separate organisms - they will be identical twins. If the zygote splits and separates multiple times, you can get triplets or even quadruplets. They will all be (more-or-less) genetically identical.
If two eggs are released during ovulation and each one is fertilized (by a separate sperm) then you will have fraternal (non-identical) twins. Again, if multiple eggs are released (for example, when a woman is undergoing fertility treatments) and each one is fertilized by a separate sperm, you can get triplets, quadruplets, etc. They will all be genetically different and can even be different sexes.
Yes, non-identical twins are often referred to as fraternal twins. These twins develop from two separate eggs fertilized by two different sperm cells, resulting in genetic differences that can make them look less alike than identical twins.
After fertilization of ovum by sperm, new cell is formed, witch go on dividing by mitosis to produce entire human being.There are all DNA identical or else immunity will go on killing nonidentical cells and animal cannot survive because animals own cell will kill themselves. Nonidentical cells produced accidentally are killed by immune system.
Identical twins, due to the fact that the one fertilized egg splits, have identical DNA. Fraternal twins, since they are from separate eggs, have different DNA.
Because the mother identical twins each have a different husband . . . half of his characteristics show up in their babies.
Identical offspring are referred to as "monozygotic twins" or simply "identical twins." They arise from a single fertilized egg that splits into two embryos, resulting in genetically identical individuals. This contrasts with "dizygotic twins," or fraternal twins, which develop from two separate eggs fertilized by two different sperm. Identical twins share the same genetic material, while fraternal twins do not.
There is Identical twins, Nonidentical twins and Conjoined twins.
10 million identical and 115 nonidentical.
Identical twins are born together, and look exactly alike.Nonidentical twins are born together, but do not look exactly alike.A good example of non identical would be boy and girl twins,
Non-identical twins occur when the mother ovulates and two separate eggs are released and fertilised. This is different to identical twins, they occur when one original egg splits n two and develops in tandem. then yo have sex

No, most pregnancies do not start out as twins. When the ovaries release two eggs and both are fertilized then will twins be born (fraternal/nonidentical twins). Or a fertilized egg may divide before implantation resulting in identical twins.
Non-identical twins happen when two eggs are fertilized at the same time. This happens when the mother ovulates twice, so she has two separate eggs that can be fertilized and develop into fetuses.
dizygotic
about 80% because most of the people i no are identical
The reason why some twins are identical and some are not starts in utero. Identical twins occur when one egg is fertilized and it splits to create two embryos. Nonidentical twins come from different fertilized eggs.
The DNA of identical twins and of clones is, apart from random, environmentally produced mutations, 100% identical. The only difference is that clones are produced on purpose through advanced bioengineering techniques while identical twins happen as an accident of nature. Identical twins are, in a sense, natural clones.
