Bokanovsky's Process is a fictional process of human cloning that is a key aspect of the world envisioned in Aldous Huxley's 1932 novel Brave New World.. The process is applied to fertilized human eggs in vitro, causing them to split into identical genetic copies of the original.
Monoamniotic twins are identical or semi-identical twins that share the same amniotic sac within their mother's uterus. [1] Monoamniotic twins are always monochorionic and are usually termed Monoamniotic-Monochorionic ("MoMo" or "Mono Mono") twins. [1] [2] They share the placenta, but have two separate umbilical cords. Monoamniotic twins ...
Monochorionic twins are monozygotic (identical) twins that share the same placenta. If the placenta is shared by more than two twins (see multiple birth), these are monochorionic multiples. Monochorionic twins occur in 0.3% of all pregnancies. [1] Seventy-five percent of monozygotic twin pregnancies are monochorionic; the remaining 25% are ...
The human twin birth rate in the United States rose 76% from 1980 through 2009, from 9.4 to 16.7 twin sets (18.8 to 33.3 twins) per 1,000 births. [5] The Yoruba people have the highest rate of twinning in the world, at 45–50 twin sets (90–100 twins) per 1,000 live births, [6] [7] [8] possibly because of high consumption of a specific type of yam containing a natural phytoestrogen which may ...

According to Charles, shortly after the two men completed their moonwalk in July 1969, they climbed back into the Apollo 11 lunar module and Aldrin’s large backpack accidentally brushed up ...
The word zygosity may also be used to describe the genetic similarity or dissimilarity of twins. [6] Identical twins are monozygotic, meaning that they develop from one zygote that splits and forms two embryos. Fraternal twins are dizygotic because they develop from two separate oocytes (egg cells) that are fertilized by two separate sperm.
