The female cat, therefore, can have the orange mutant gene on one X chromosome and the gene for a black coat on the other. The piebald gene is on a different chromosome. If expressed, this gene codes for white, or no color, and is dominant over the alleles that code for a certain color (i.e. orange or black), making the white spots on calico cats.
For example, a gene that makes the brown pigment in your eyes might come in a regular (brown) version and a mutant (blue) version. Because you have two copies of your DNA (one from Mom and one from Dad), you might end up with two different alleles of the same gene. In that case, we would say you are heterozygous.
