Dosage compensation in mammals typically involves the random inactivation of one of the two X chromosomes relatively early in development. Such X chromosome inactivation often leads to phenotypic mosaicism.
 
  Assume that black fur in cats is due to the X-linked recessive gene b, whereas its dominant allele B produces yellow fur. A Bb heterozygote is a mosaic called tortoise shell or calico. Using appropriate gene symbols, diagram a mating between a black male and a calico female. Give the phenotypes and genotypes of all the offspring.
