| Description: Visible evidence of mosaic tissues in a human female. One of this girl’s X chromosomes carries a mutation that causes incontinentia pigmenti, a disorder that affects the skin, hair, nails, and teeth. This chromosome is active in darker patches of skin. Her other X chromosome, which does not carry the mutation, is active in the lighter patches of skin.
