First, they do not have any differences in their DNA code, that's what makes them IDENTICAL TWINS!Actually, JayZee is correct, it has been fairly recently discovered that identical twins DO have tiny differences in their genetic code. So, genetically speaking, they are not 100% identical (but very, very close). A human clone would be even more different than an identical twin because it would incubate in a different womb (usually) and be younger. I don't think gestation in a different womb would make a clone any more different than MZ twins are from each other, but the generational differences (and issues like telomeres, etc) would have an effect. |
