Identical twins are also known as monozygotic twins.
They result from the fertilization of a single egg that splits in two.
Identical twins generally have the same sex, eye and hair color, as well as blood type.
Their physical features look typically the same, with most twins having an exact mirror face of the other.This may change as they grow older.
Hope it helps :)

Twins can be categorised as monozygotic or dizygotic depending on whether they stem from a single zygote (1 zygote = monozygotic) or are the result of 2 separate eggs fertilised by 2 separate sperm (2 zygotes = dizygotic). Dizygotic (non-identical) twins are much more common than monozygotic (identical) twins.
