Is there any scientific evidence of this

Yes, diet and environment have a lot to do with height and body type. I read of one case where twins were separated and one grew up in the US and one in Mexico, and the US one was tall and the other was short, because of their different diet.

Environmental factors can influence how organisms turn out, even people. If one twin is malnourished, has suffered a disease, or has otherwise not grown to the height indicated by the genes. There have been many scientific studies of twins who were raised apart.

Yes, they can definitely have different heights and builds; even if they are identical AND raised in the same household.

this is like the Olsen twins. they seem alike yet they are not comparable. this is accessible for them to look very comparable however. My older brothers are 3 years aside and the only distinction is that one is taller. And no, this is genuinely no longer accessible for twins of diverse genders to be comparable. Fraternal twins like what you have ensue whilst a woman produces 2 eggs for the period of ovulation and the two are fertilized. comparable twins ensue whilst one egg is fertilized then splits coming up 2 embryos. it quite is the least complicated thank you to place it. lovable little ones btw :) Congrats

yes..Sometimes they CAN look different even if they are raised TOGETHER depending on their parents genotype. Make a punnett square with help of a bio teacher and see what comes out..Best of Luck
