In cats, the X-linked allele O converts the black pigment found in the fur into an orange pigment. Heterozygous females are mosaics of orange and black pigmented fur. The autosomal dominant allele W prevents the deposition of any pigment at all in the fur. A white female cat is mated to a male of unknown phenotype, and the progeny consist of 1/4 white females, 1/8 mosaic females, 1/8 black females, 1/4 white males, 1/8 orange males, and 1/8 black males. What are the genotypes of the parents?
