Identical Twins are the result of a single fertilized egg spliting in two producing two genetically identical children.
Fraternal twins are the result of the mother producing two eggs each fertilized by a different sperm from the father. This can result in opposite sex twins.
No, triplets cannot be identical if they are of different genders. Identical triplets arise from a single fertilized egg that splits into three, resulting in genetically identical siblings with the same sex. If the triplets are of different genders, they must have originated from multiple eggs being fertilized, which means they are fraternal triplets instead of identical ones.
Nature has various safety valves. That is one of them. Conjoined Twins are identical twins with a natural connective bond, therefore they always take the same sex. Fraternal twins, like the fictional Bobbseys, can be Boy and Girl.
Unlike identical twins, fraternal twins come from two separate eggs each getting fertilized by a separate sperm. Now these sperms can both carry an X chromosome or a Y chromosome giving rise to fraternal twins of the same gender. But at times one could carry the X chromosome and the other could carry the Y chromosome resulting in twins of opposite gender.
They would be fraternal twins. Identical twins are created when one sperm fertilized one egg, and hat egg then splits in two. Identical twins are always the same gender, while fraternal twins can be either gender, or a mix of the two.
Fraternal twins come from the fertilization of two different eggs. It can cause them to look almost the same, but they could just as easily be totally different, even different genders. Identical twins come from the splitting of only one fertilized egg, making them look exactly the same and they will always be the same gender.
fraternal twins have two different chromosomes
Yes, it's possible for a mutation in the chromosome to produce otherwise-identical twins with opposite genders. But generally no, identical twins have the same gender. (but fraternal twins have different genders just as often as any siblings)

They can be. While identical twins always have to be the same gender, fraternal twins usually are not. However this is not always the case. Identical twins occur because they inhabit the same egg. Fraternal twins because two eggs were fertilized at the same time. So fraternal twins could be the same gender, but usually they are of the opposite gender.

Fraternal twins share most of their genetic material, by virtue of having the same parents. Identical twins, however, by definition share 100% of their DNA. This means, for example, that identical twins cannot ever be one of each gender, as fraternal twins often are.
Unlike identical twins, fraternal twins come from two separate eggs each getting fertilized by a separate sperm. Now these sperms can both carry an X chromosome or a Y chromosome giving rise to fraternal twins of the same gender.

Different gender twins will automatically be fraternal, meaning they are both from separate eggs and separate sperm. Identical twins are formed from the splitting of one fertilized egg.
Your question is somewhat ambiguous ( appropriate term ah so). One basic rule is that almost always, as with any identical twins, they take the same gender, either both boys or both girls. No mixed genders - like the fictional Bobbsey Twins , a boy and a girl ( Fraternal twins can be this type, but not identical or Siamese. also, generally they are conjoined at the hip, or as one Carnival Barker put it ( In the Gunsmoke posture!) There are other joining bands, also. The Girls can be beautiful
