The factor that is likely the reason for having the same basal metabolic rate (BMR) despite leading independent lives is most likely our age. BMR is influenced by several factors, including age, sex, height, weight, and muscle mass. As twins, we share the same age, which means our bodies have undergone similar physiological changes and developments throughout our lives. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that our BMRs would be relatively similar.
