conjoined twins are babies that are attached to each other. some are attached by just their skins. some actually share a heart, lung, or other vital organ.

Conjoined twins means the babies share technically the same body. They could be joined in a number of ways, their skulls could be fused together but everthing else is seperate, the could be joined at the trunk where some of their organs might be shared, for example they might share the same liver. Often times conjoined twins can be seperated, but when they share certain organs it gets more complicated.

conjoined twins are what used to be calle siamese twins . the egg is going to split like normal twins but for whatever reason , it does not fully separate, resulting in conjoined twins.

conjoined twins are identical twins that fail to completely split early in development.
always identical.
sometimes they share internal organs, sometimes limbs are shared(may have 2 arms and 4 legs) they may be joined at the head, chest or abdomen

Siamese twins.
The word Conjoined means joined together

conjoined twins would be twns that are linked together. usually one dies before labor, but is still attached to the other.
