Humans have about 30,000 genes that exist in 23 pairs of chromosomes. The female will have 50% of the mother's chromosome and 50% of the father's chromosome.
Dr. Alexandra Burt, co-director of the University of Michigan's Twin Registry, said genetic factors from more special twins and eggs.
During the first two weeks of pregnancy, fertilized eggs are divided and both eggs are implanted and become two people.
In the case of the twins Brittany and Briana Deane and Josh and Jeremy Salyers, every child they give birth to has the same genes as their aunt. As a result, children with 50% of the same genes as siblings and their parents.
This is not the same as inbreeding which causes birth defects for children born. Therefore, these two twins do not need to worry during childbirth.
Since the 1980s, the rate of twins has increased in the world because of the increasing number of infertile women who have received IVF treatment. In 1980, of the 1,000 births, 19 were born twins, up to 33 in 2016.
However, twins with eggs are increasingly rare, according to the Daily Mail.
