Multiple Births
Multiple births happen when two or more fetuses are developed during a pregnancy. Two fetuses, or twins, are common; but eight fetuses, or octuplets, are rare. Premature birth is most likely to happen to babies born from a multiple-birth.

Is it true that everyone has a twin not related to them?
No. It is a typecast Hollywood perception and a scientific fallacy. A twin means an identical, or a copy, thing. Even a duplicate from a Xerox copier has differences. No two, even identical looking, people are an exact twin. Manerisms, faint blemishes etc, will always be a difference. The rest is our simple perception of what a twin is.

A phantom twin refers to a phenomenon where one twin in a multiple pregnancy does not survive, but the other twin continues to develop. The surviving twin may experience sensations or emotional connections related to the deceased sibling, which can include feelings of loss or even physical sensations. This concept can also extend to cases where a partial or fully formed twin is absorbed by the other during early pregnancy, leaving the surviving twin with physical anomalies or psychological effects related to their phantom sibling.
What happens if a British queen gives birth to a pair of conjoined twins Who gets to be king?
Since this has never happened, and the odds are astronomically low, we can only speculate. There is no clear mention of this in British law. Here is my opinion.:
One twin is usually delivered first, even with conjoined twins. If the twins are removed by C-section with no clear "first" or "second," then the twin who was labeled A during the pregnancy would likely be the heir apparent.
How many cases have there been for decaplets?
There has never been any surviving recorded case of decaplets (a multiple birth involving ten infants).

Mirror image twins are identical and have mirror image differences but are genetically identical which means they have the same DNA.
A set of mirror-image twins will have similarities like a mole. One twin would have it on his left arm while the other would have it on his right. Another common feature is one twin being left handed, while the other is right handed. For male twins, the swirl of hair crown is often in the opposite direction.
Yes but it usually skips a generation. Paternal twins are not genetic however.
Willl a females water break twice if she is having twins?
I'm not entirely sure . . . but I'm learning about animal development now. Embryos are surrounded by a few extraembryonic membranes: the chorion (outermost), the amnion (holds the "water"), the allantois (part of umbilical cord) and the yolk sac (contains no yolk, but where blood cells form). Twins most commonly separate either before the chorion develops or after the chorion develops and before the amnion does (so the embryos each have their own amnion and "water"). If the latter is the case, it seems like it would be reasonable to assume that two amnions and thus two "waters" would have to break. But, again, I'm not 100 percent sure . . .
The term "hairy twin" typically refers to a rare medical condition called "hypertrichosis," where an individual has excessive hair growth on their body. In some cases, this condition can manifest in a way that resembles a twin or a separate entity due to the extent of the hair. It can occur in various forms and may be genetic or acquired. The condition can have social and psychological implications for those affected.
