  1. Yes


  2. No they will all be half black and half white :P

    Anyways the dominant genes will run through meaning the black will appear more but strangly enough kids look more black when the father is black and whiter when the father is white...i don't know why!

  3. who cares?

  4. LOL! That makes absolutely no sense!

  5. It's not only possible, it's happened here in the UK recently- look!

  6. I have two sisters who are twins. One, however, is darker in complexion, and has curly brown hair. The other is whiter in complexion and has straight blond hair. One looks like my dad, the other like her mom.

    They came from the same sperm, but it just that we take come things from both parents. Normally, like the other reply-er said we take more from the dominant partner.

    We also take blood from our fathers too.

  7. do u mean  1 baby more white n next baby more black? yes!!!

  8. yes didnt you see the news about 4 days ago a bi racial couple had twins both boys and one was white and the other was white so cute you would never guess they were brothers but go to yahoo and check it out

  9. yes! my daughter is half mexican and i am white she came out white she tanned a lot later but she was white

  10. Yes. I have friends white and black babies.

  11. I'm white and my wife's black.  All 3 of our sons started out light when they were born (think of a white person with a tan) and eventually got darker as they got older (think of a latino).

  12. They will be biracial children, but twins were just born the other day to a mixed race couple, and one was very light and the other very dark.

  13. Of course....I have several Bi~racial friends who have children...Some look white, some look black,some look mixed...

  14. Rare but possible.  A bi-racial couple just had twins with different coloring.

  15. No.

    It's not possible for some "to be white" while others are "black".

    Now, they can appear (as in skin tone) to be one race or the other, but they cannot be one race or the other b/c they are both.

  16. Skin color is an additive allele (or a trait) so technically a child could be as light as the lightest parent, or as dark as the darkest parent. However, typically the skin color ranges along the middle. It is rare bi-racial twins when one twin look completely one race and the other looks the other race, but it happens.
