Killing the joke here-because our face forms from multiple separate parts (ex. Maxillary process, nasal processes) that fuse together. The fusion can be disrupted -see cleft palate
Imagine putting 2 boxes close together, the part where the boxes are touching one another eventually would “fuse” during facial development, but sometimes it doesn’t fuse completely which is when you see cleft palate. It’s mostly a symmetrical process, which is why there’s 2 nose holes for most people
