    A man is telling you that he has pet opossums (2n = 22) that have babies (joeys) that aren’t identical twins, but are identical genetically. Explain in a paragraph why that would be highly unlikely to have occurred. Reference and explain independent assortment, crossing over, and random fertilization.

    Please help me!

    Use independent assortment, crossing over, and random fertilization explain the paragraph " A man is telling you that he has pet opossums (2n = 22) that have babies (joeys) that aren’t identical twins, but are identical genetically.

    WHY that aren’t identical twins, but are identical genetically. ??

    Identical twins 2 sperm share one ovum.

    In this "highly unlikely" case, 2 sperms and 2 ova, but due to "DNA arrangement" both babies have identical DNA. I don't know the technical term for this "DNA arrangement". chance of 1 in couple hundred trillions ?
