Yes. Only one sperm can penetrate the ovum. Multiple births can occur in a couple of different ways: Multiple ovum are fertilized and attach to the uterine wall. Multiple ovum are implanted by a doctor during IVF, or the egg splits into multiples after fertilization takes place.

Not really. Which ever way , the father is definately involved. The father and the mother are important in determining multiple birth!Without the father,there can never be a multiple birth.
The mother's ova sure results to baby(ies)...Either the mother produce a single egg that gets fertilized by the father which could further split into multiples ,or the many eggs produced by the mother could be fertilized individually by the father.

While some will tell you that it's the mother and multiple eggs being fertilized by one sperm, there are occasions when one or two more spems will fertilize an egg.
Paternal twins: Multiple ova from the mother.
Identical twins occur when a single egg is fertilized to form one zygote which then divides into two separate embryos.
There's always an exception to the rule!

WRONG!!!! A woman may drop multiple eggs but without sperm nothing is going to happen. Also genetics play a role do multiple births run on mother or fathers side? Identical twins are caused by the egg splitting but you have to fertilize. Fraternal are two eggs and two sperm.

It happens when there's a family history of multiple birth. It can involve an egg being fertilized and splitting (identical twins, for example) or two or more eggs being fertilized (fraternal twins).

depends..there are two kinds of multiple birth, one that results to identical and the other to unidentical twins...sometimes, for some reason there are 2 ova available instead of one and if both of them were entered by sperm then that results to UNidentical twins...and the other is when one ova that meets with a sperm divides into two and multiplies separately then that leads to identical twins...so sometimes its both who's responsible and sometimes its just the mother

Multiple births are hereditary, and yes it is on the maternal side. My friend Sarah didn't realize that their were twins in her family, but then again it also skips a generation. You have twins, or what not, then your grandchildren will most likely have twins as well. Good luck.

Thats merely existence. i'm no longer followed yet i don't have my father's medical historic past. it really is not merely an situation with adoption. If I were given ill as a baby/after I do now sorting out ought to be done to discern it out. It does take a touch better attempt and drs yet ought to correctly be dealt with.

I am fairly sure your right, My dd has naturally concieved triplets, Dr told her that she released eggs over 3 days and were fertilised, thus giving her a multiple birth
