I am a twin will i also have twins?

Having twins is based on probability. There is not a 100% chance you will have twins.


If the probability of getting identical is 0.004 while the probability of fraternal twins is 0.023 then what is the probability that a person chosen at random will not be a twin?

1- P(identical) - P(fraternal) =1-0.004-0.023 =0.973 The probability of being a identical or fraternal twin plus the probability of not being a twin has to add to 1. so 1- probability of being twins=probability of not being a twin ;-)


If the probability of getting identical twins is 0.004 while the probability of fraternal twins is 0.023 then what is the probability that a person chosen will be a twin?

P(twin)=P(identical)+P(fraternal) P(twin)=0.004 +0.023 P(twin)=0.027 [That's 27 out of 1,000 cases, or 54 persons out of 1027.]


What is the probability of having twins if your husband is a twin?

Identical twins happen by chance only; 4 per 1000 births or 0.004 probability. Fraternal twin probability is increased only if it is on the mother's side; so this does you affect your circumstance (from what you have stated). The chance of fraternal twins is 1 in 60 or 0.017. So, your probability of identical twins is 0.004 and fraternal twins is 0.017 (BTW, I have triplets).


What are the chances of identical twins having twins themselves?

Women who are themselves fraternal twins have a 10% chance of producing twins, identical twin women have only a 0.6% probability of having a twin birth.


What is the probability of having twins if your dad is a fraternal twin and you are a identical twin and your moms dad is a fraternal twin?

The probability is the same as if you had no history of twins in your family. There is no genetic component with identical twins, it is just something that happens. Fraternal twins occur if a mother "drops" two eggs in one month. Your father being a fraternal twin does not make you "drop" more than one egg in a month and so does not increase your chances of having twins. Your maternal grandfather being a fraternal twin did not effect your mother's ability to drop more than one egg and so did not effect your ability to "drop" more than one egg and so does not increase your ability to have twins.


Is twins the plural of twin?

Twin for 1 twins for both.


Is it twin's parents or twins' parents?

A twin is still a single, one has twins. So, "twins' parents."


Do you spell twins' or twin's?

That will depend. Presumably you are talking about possessives. If you are referring to one individual as a twin and something that belongs to that twin, then it is twin's. So if you are talking about the computer belonging to one twin it would be: The twin's computer. If you are talking about something jointly owned by twins, then it is is twins' that would be used. So if you were referring to the parents of the two people, it would be: The twins' parents. If you are not talking about possessives but talking about plural, then it is twins.
