Identical Twins

• Are an enigma and a miracle
• Monozygotic
• One egg is released.one sperm meets it and gets
  inside
• The cell starts to divide

Identical

• Monozygotic twinning occurs in birthing at a rate
  of about three in every 1000 deliveries
  worldwide.14
• The likelihood of a single fertilization
  resulting in monozygotic twins is uniformly
  distributed in all populations around the
  world.12
• The exact cause for the splitting of a zygote or
  embryo is unknown.

Fraternal

• Fraternal or dizygotic (DZ) twins usually occur
  when two fertilized eggs are implanted in the
  uterus wall at the same time.
• When two eggs are independently fertilized by two
  different sperm cells, fraternal twins result.
• The two eggs, or ova, form two zygotes, hence
  the terms dizygotic and biovular.

Fraternal

• Kenny and Kevin Johansen

• ranges from about six per thousand births in
  Japan (almost similar to the rate of identical
  twins, which is around 45) to 15 and more per
  thousand in some parts of India16 and up to
  over 20 in some Central African countries.8

The Yoruba present the highest dizygotic twinning
rate in the world (4.4  of all maternities).

Fraternal

• dizygotic twins may look similar, particularly
  given that they are the same age. However,
  dizygotic twins may also look very different from
  each other.
• They may be of different sexes or the same sex.
  The same holds true for brothers and sisters from
  the same parents, meaning that fraternal and/or
  sororal twins are simply siblings who happen to
  be the same age.

15

• Dizygotic twins are also more common for older
  mothers, with twinning rates doubling in mothers
  over the age of 35.12 With the advent of
  technologies and techniques to assist women in
  getting pregnant, the rate of fraternals has
  increased markedly.

16

• In-vitro fertilization techniques are more likely
  to create dizygotic twins. Only about three pairs
  of twins per 1,000 deliveries occur as a result
  of natural conception, while for IVF deliveries,
  there are nearly 21 pairs of twins for every
  1,000.17
