What else can I help you with?
What will happen if one sperm will fertilized two eggs?
You have twins
How are identical twins genetically from fraternal twins?
Identical twins are genetically the same, because they come from the same fertilized egg/sperm cell zygote, which happens to split into two viable zygotes. Fraternal twins, however, come from two different egg/sperm cell zygotes, that are concurrently fertilized and remain viable.
What do you call identical twins that develop from two different eggs that are fertilized by different sperm?
That isn't possible: if the twins are from two different eggs, fertilized by different sperm, then they will not be identical. It's genetically impossible.
What is the cause of fraternal wins?
Fraternal twins are developed from the fertilization of two separate eggs. In most cases a woman releases one oocyte every month from alternate ovaries. Sometimes an oocyte is released from both ovaries at the same time both of which are fertilized by separate sperm. This results in the development of non-identical (fraternal) twins each having its own placenta for nourishment.
How do fraternal twins form?
The woman's body releases 2 eggs instead of one, and both get fertilized.
How do you have twins with different father?
Your body released two eggs that were fertilized by sperm from two different men.
Is the primary oocyte diploid?
92 In women, gametogenesis begins in fetal life, but is arrested in prophase of meiosis I for years until just before ovulation. This arrested oocyte is called the "primary oocyte". The human genome consists of 23 chromosomes, and normal somatic cells in humans have two of each chromosome (2N) in the resting state. Since the DNA in the primary oocyte has already replicated and but hasn't undergone division yet, the cell contains double the number of chromosomes of the original cell. Therefore the primary oocyte has 92 chromosomes (4N). Keep in mind though, that just before ovulation, the cell will complete meisois I and be released as 2N (the other 2N is split off as the 1st polar body). This released cell (secondary oocyte) which is now 2N is arrested in metaphase of meiosis II until fertilized, where it will release a second polar body (which now only has 1N). The fertilized egg therefore has two copies of chromosomes, 23 from mother (from the original 92 you started out with), and 23 from the sperm.
Do identical twins develop from two different eggs that are fertilized by different sperm?
No, fraternal twins do.
How are identical twins created or formed?
There are two way twins are formed. Twins can form by two eggs being released by the female and the sperm will fertilize both eggs. The other way twins can be formed is if one fertilized egg divides and forms two eggs.
Why are twins formed in one embryo?
Twins are formed when a fertilized egg divides into two embryos early in development. These embryos can develop into identical twins if they split before any differentiation occurs. Fraternal twins occur when two eggs are fertilized by two separate sperm, leading to separate embryos.
Which event can result in the birth of identical twins?
Two egg cells are each fertilized by separate sperm cells.
What happens when two different males sperm meet?
Nothing happens between the sperm. Each tries to fertilise the ovum.
