If...
 

two pairs of twins (two men twins and two women twins) got married to the other twin of the opposite sex, and had children, would the children look the same?


I have tried to make that make as much sense as I can lol. Does anyone actually know the answer?

No they wouldn't because genes are just a random choice thats complete chance. It is possible they would but there would be something like a 1 in a trillion chance of it happening.

Ahh right. thank you! x

They wouldnt be identical but probably look similar, its all to do with types of alleles and dominant and recessive genes, recessive genes only happen if both of the parents sex cells have it.


Edit: yeah what Fom said, your sex cells have different combinations of chromosomes which have different genes [alleles], I think. Some will be for brown hair for example if you have brown hair, and some may be for blonde if your mum or dad for example had it.

I was actually wondering this, like a while ago :laugh:
youre thinking of jedward, aint ya?! ;)

If I'm right, physical appearances are determined in the chromosomes of each parent. Then the choice is done randomly of what is from which parent so they might not be the same considering the choice of the genes and the gender of the children.

For example: if Daddy A is blonde with blue eyes and marries Mummy A who's a brunette and has green eyes then Baby 1 may be blonde with green eyes.
So Daddy B and Mummy B are exactly the same as Daddy A and Mummy A as they are twins. However, their children Baby 2 may be a brunette with blue eyes.

Do you get it ? The choice is random.

Yeah I get it. thank you! x

thanks to everyone else aswell. Your all stars. x :)

Depends on genes which are weird things. Parents with brown eyes can have a blue eyed baby for example. So its possible.

It is possible that they would look similar but it is impossible for them to be identical

they would all be clones of each other bbz x

Sam and Amanda should have babies with Jedward.

Ive heard someone say that before..
:joker:
they would make LOVELY babies :lovedup:

Yes!! Lets test this theory out! :laugh2:

Yeah,what everyone else said :P

My granny's sister is married to my grandad's brother,so everyone is like doubly related,lol!

haha same! xD

Not impossible but the odds are so thin of it happening it might as well be.
