identicle twins: the sperm fertilizes one egg and it randomly splits in two. This is not genetic and completely random. they are always the same gender.
Faternal twins: two completely different eggs that the sperm fertilzes... its like mere came from one egg and heath came from a completely different one... they are no different then any other brother or sister. this is genetic on the mother's side on the number of eggs they tend to ovulate at one time.
hope that cleared it up...

Thats how Cas and Pol's parents (Castor and Pollux) were born in the Greek Mythology book.

like i said, its impossible... because mythology isn't true at all. but we can over look that since this whole thing is based on mythology.

well yeah that can happen... if the mom isnt a good mom... haha but not from one egg... hence not identicle twins.
