I'm trying to help another yahoo user find pictures that show actual body measurements, ie hands, feet, etc. It's for a research paper, and they'll certainly need help on this one. they already tried online searches.

No, most twins will be taller or shorter than the other, and sometimes they have a different face structure, but only slightly different from the other. Also, most have a birth mark that the other doesn't have.

well, i kniw two sets of twins (not sure if they're identical), but one pair look different from each other (one is taller), but the other pair seem the same. It's kinda funny though cuz the twins thaat look some-what different from each other and one of the other one are in band w/ me. Everyone always thinks that the short one (of the pair that look different) and the other one thats in band are twins. I don't know if either are identical though. I also know another set, but I know that their not identical, cuz ones a boy and ones a girl.

Yes and no!
Can't give pictures etc. However, when bbrought up together the only difference is usually fingerprints and small details like that.
Some eventhough broughtup on opposite sides of the world have had their weights within 1kg of each other, the same likes/dislikes in music, fashions and colour.

They are truly identical genetically. However, that doesn't mean that they can't look slightly different, or be heavier or shorter, for example. There are many cultural factors which will contribute to certain characteristics.

Yes, that's why Josef Mengele (the famous "angel of death" at Auschwitz) used them in his inhuman experiments. One twin was the control and the other wasn't.
