Genetically speaking, am I more closely related to my individual parents, or one of my siblings, excluding identical twins?
In: Biology
Your parents.
You have a mix of 50% dad dna and 50% mom dna.
But the genes you take from your mom and the genes you take form your dad are random.
So your sibling is also 50% mom and 50% dad, but it might be a different mix of genes.
This is why siblings can have different hair colors, eyes colors, and in general look really different and be really different.
