Yes, the development of schizophrenia has a genetic component.
One egg, one sperm.
In most cases, it is recommended to deliver the babies if one twin has died to reduce the risk of complications for the surviving twin and the mother. Continuing the pregnancy with one deceased twin can increase the risk of infection, preterm labor, and other complications. Your healthcare provider will guide you based on your specific situation.
I have not seen any studies on whether twins are more likely to have an autism spectrum disorder than single-birth children. It is possible that no one has done research on this. If one identical twin has an autism spectrum disorder, there is approximately a 90% chance that the other identical twin will. They might not have the same autism spectrum disorder or they might have the same disorder at different levels of severity. Many studies show the chance that they both have it if one twin does as somewhere between 82% and 97%. If the twins are fraternal (non-identical) twins and one has an autism spectrum disorder, the other has about the same chance of having an autism spectrum disorder as non-twin siblings do, which is greater than the chance of having an autism spectrum disorder in a family that does not have any history of it.
Identical twins are twins that develop from same egg. These twins have same genome, also they have same physical appearance with minimal differences.
Yes. I have an identical twin sister and I have had no trouble getting pregnant with my 2 children. My sister has been trying to conceive for 2 years now, and has been considered infertile. There is no explanation for it, and she has had several unsuccessful attempts with fertility treatments. It makes me very sad for her, and sad that the dream of raising our children together will never happen.
Yes, I'm afraid so, anyone can be infertile.
Yes, it is possible. In one study, the chance that an identical twin has autism when the other does is 82%. That means that 18% of the identical twins did not have autism. It is much more likely that an identical twin will have autism if the other does than that a fraternal twin or other sibling will, but it does not happen every time.
Yes, the development of schizophrenia has a genetic component.
If 1 identical twin has it, the odds are higher than regular siblings that the other twin will get it. If 1 fraternal twin has diabetes, the odds are the same as if any of their siblings have it. But no, if one twin has it, that doesn't necessarily mean both do.
Identical twins share 100% of their genetic material, so if one twin has schizophrenia, the other twin has a high likelihood of developing it due to genetic predisposition. However, environmental factors also play a role in the development of schizophrenia, so it is not guaranteed that both twins will develop the disorder.
you don't have to tell the twin anything, they are separate people, just date the one you like. Tell the one you like that you think her twin is cool and leave it at that.... don't worry what the other may think.
Identical twins can be identical, but not all the time. Sometimes one may have a pointy ear ect. But they are still identical twins. Identical twins can supposidly feel what they're twin is feeling, like, if one twin were to be in panic, the other one may feel it too. Identical twins are also known to finish each others sentences and mirror each others movements. I'll use John and Edward Grimes for examples. (Sorry if you don't like them, but I am a big fan and know a lot about them and I can't think of any other twin examples that I can use) When they were babies, they slept in cots next to each other. One night, Edward pulled the blankets right over his head, and his twin brother, John Grimes, started screaming his head off until his mother came and seen what Edward had done. Identical twins usually chirp into their twins sentence. For an example of that go here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57ek7QPx2G4 You will find they keep interupting each other, I've heard that twins usually do that to gain attention, having a twin and all. Hope that helped. ^^
One egg, one sperm.
Well, as an identical twin myself, I believe there is a one out of twelve chance of having identical twins, although, I'm not 100% sure....
s0omeone answer me huury !
Yup. My twin is an A and I am a B (done by the military, twice to double-check). We look and talk alike. Sound alike.
