Would a person with one blue eye and one brown eye beNo, that's a condition called 'heterochromia irides', sometimes a spontaneously occurring pigmentation defect, but in other cases, its related to heritable conditions, which sometimes are also accompanied by deafness and partial albinism, etc.
considered a 'chimera' in this sense of the term?
I've seen photos of bovine chimeras created, back in the early days of embryo transfer work by taking 4-day-old fertilized Holstein and Hereford eggs(blastocyst stage), removing cells from each, mixing them together, then implanting them into a new evacuated zona pellucida(the 'shell' surrounding a mammalian ovum), and implanting them in a synchronized recipient cow, who carried the calf to term and delivered it. The resulting calf had a haircoat that was a patchwork of black, red, and white spots, depending on which one of the two eggs the cells that produced those areas of skin/hair came from.
I don't know what the animal looked like at maturity - this was a photo of a 300-400 lb. calf.

*Why* would this happen within an individual organism, such
as one apple tree or one tomato plant?
