Doctors can perform tests called biopsies to determine whether cells in an area of tissue are cancerous or not. Cells are removed from the area, sometimes by a punch biopsy, and then viewed under a microscope.

Twins are born minutes apart, not a year apart. fraternal twins are no more closely related genetically than ordinary siblings born a year apart. they just happen to be born at the same time. identical twins result from a single fertilized egg dividing and separating early in gestation. although identical twins are more similar to each other than other siblings, there is some research to suggest they are not 100% the same. you and your brother share very similar dna because you have the same parents, and you look the same. i'll bet you resemble one or both of your parents, and likely a grandparent or two as well.
