Solution
The correct option is D Same zygote
There are two types of twins, Fraternal or dizygotic twins, and monozygotic twins.
When the zygote, during the cleavage, separates and forms two different cells and both of them grow individually as embryos, they form the monozygotic twins.
Monozygotic twins are of the same sex.
When 2 zygotes are fertilized by two different sperms they form the dizygotic twins.
