Difference between Tortoiseshell cat and X-inactivation

Tortoiseshell cat vs. X-inactivation

Tortoiseshell is a cat coat coloring named for its similarity to tortoiseshell material. X-inactivation (also called lyonization) is a process by which one of the copies of the X chromosome present in female mammals is inactivated.

Similarities between Tortoiseshell cat and X-inactivation

Tortoiseshell cat and X-inactivation have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Allele, Barr body, Calico cat, Klinefelter syndrome, Mosaic (genetics), Sex-determination system, X chromosome.

Allele

An allele is a variant form of a given gene.

Barr body

A Barr body (named after discoverer Murray Barr) is the inactive X chromosome in a female somatic cell, rendered inactive in a process called lyonization, in those species in which sex is determined by the presence of the Y (including humans) or W chromosome rather than the diploidy of the X. The Lyon hypothesis states that in cells with multiple X chromosomes, all but one are inactivated during mammalian embryogenesis.

Mosaic (genetics)

In genetics, a mosaic, or mosaicism, involves the presence of two or more populations of cells with different genotypes in one individual, who has developed from a single fertilized egg.

X chromosome

The X chromosome is one of the two sex-determining chromosomes (allosomes) in many organisms, including mammals (the other is the Y chromosome), and is found in both males and females.
