No because some of the recessive genes from the parents( which in them dont express them selves ) may pair up and get expressed in the child . per trait there is 1/4 chance of this happening so the chances are that the child will look 3/4 like the parents( actually a little more because for some traits may be homozygous in the parents in which case they will definately express in the the child)

for example if the parents are of blood group A ( heterozygous) then there is 1/4 chance of the child being O and 3/4 chance of being A.

However if the parents had all their traits to be homogenous then the child will be identical to them but this is unlikely(the probability is less than 1in a billion )

Maximum variation will be if all the traits in parents were heterogenous inwhich case the child will be on average be 75% like the parents.

most people will have some heterogenous traits and some homogenous hence the resembelance of the child will be from 75% to 100%


You however may not understand all this if you don't know the basics of genetics. But it is actually kind of simple.


i know some people have pointed out that identical twins are of the same sex, however i am considering an hypothetical situation inwhich too eggs from each of (female )identical twin is artificialy combined to give a child. If it were male twins the calculation woul be a little more complex but roughly the same.
Nice question by the way

No, of direction no longer. You're not thinking. If identical twin girls have companions who're same twin boys, then the offspring produced by using each and every couple will likely be genetically brothers and sisters. They are going to be cousins, and cousins on each side, so double cousins, but they're going to even be genetically siblings. This implies they are going to have exactly the same chance of watching alike as natural brothers and sisters on the grounds that the gene pools can be identical, but no siblings are same until they are identical twins. I think I've interpreted your question correctly. Surely you don't mean same twins having a child? Two people of the same sex can't reproduce.

No, of path now not. You're now not pondering. If same dual women have companions who're same dual boys, then the offspring produced through every couple shall be genetically brothers and sisters. They shall be cousins, and cousins on all sides, so double cousins, however they'll even be genetically siblings. This way they'll have precisely the identical danger of watching alike as typical brothers and sisters on the grounds that the gene swimming pools shall be same, however no siblings are same except they're same twins. I suppose I've interpreted your query thoroughly. Surely you do not imply same twins having a child? Two men and women of the identical intercourse can not reproduce.

Identical twins could not have a child together

No it would most likely not because of the mixing of the parents even if they are identical doues not always produce a exact copy.
Think of it as rolling 2 dice even if the dice have the same number of sides u wont always get a perfect copy

Are you high? Why will siblings get married?

btw...identical twins are of the same sex, therefore, how are they supposed to reproduce?

If they were identical twins they would be of same sex, they couldn't have a baby unless of course they were hemorphradites... in which case.. SUUUUURE!

NOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! because if your identical twins that means that you'r of the same sex and everything else is the same. Hence the word IDENTICAL.

Like two identical brother-sister being married together...that is sick!!!But no they wont look exactly like them...!

if its parents were identical twins they'd have to be the same sex, so two mothers or two fathers?????

hope this helps :)
