because when we are born, 1/4 of our dna comes from your mother and another 1/4 comes from your dad, the other half is made by yourself, but of course, you can't choose what ( or who ) you look like

Because we are a combination of both parents, how could we look identical if there are two parents? Dna & Genes are a wonderful and interesting topic.
We couldnt ever look identical, though my son does look identical to his father, he is a combination of both of us who looks like his dad.
