Detailed explanation-1: -To form identical or monozygotic twins, one fertilised egg (ovum) splits and develops into two babies with exactly the same genetic information. To form fraternal or dizygotic twins, two eggs (ova) are fertilised by two sperm and produce two genetically unique children.
Detailed explanation-2: -If one egg is fertilised by two sperm, it results in three sets of chromosomes, rather than the standard two-one from the mother and two from the father. And, according to researchers, three sets of chromosomes are “typically incompatible with life and embryos do not usually survive".
Detailed explanation-3: -Sometimes a fertilised egg splits within a few days of conception to produce genetically identical twins. Because these twins come from one zygote, they’re also known as monozygotic. Identical twins are the same sex.
