Blood is not water! 25 examples of striking similarities between relatives
The fact that relatives are usually similar to each other is understandable, but sometimes there are just real "copy-paste", or clones. As if the Universe was too lazy to invent something new and decided to just use the already prepared genetic information entirely. Here is a collection of such examples from the AncestryDNA community - indeed, there is a similarity!
"My friend took this picture at the clinic. Heterochromia, a rare feature passed from mother to daughter"
"On the left is my son, on the right is my father"
"I never understood why people say I look like my father until we found this picture of my paternal grandmother."
"My father and I are at the age of 29"
"Genes are a strong thing"
"Me and my mom in graduation photos, 2004 and 1971"
"This is my Norwegian great-grandmother. According to the genealogical test, Scandinavian roots in me occupy only 26%, but her genes are probably stronger than others!"
"All my life people have been telling me: “You look just like your mom at that age." I didn't agree, but then I found this photo..."

"Paternal cousins"
"I am often told that I am very similar to my grandmother. Do you agree?"
"3 generations: me in 2019 (left), mom in 1992 (bottom) and grandma in 1974 (top)"
"My great-great-grandmother on the maternal side and me. It's amazing how genes are transmitted!"
"My niece and my sister, her aunt, at 6 years old"
