  19. Results Result: No The 283 amino acids of the Pitx1 protein are identical. Hypothesis A: Differences in sequence Result: Yes Hypothesis B: Differences in expression Marine stickleback embryo: expression in ventral spine and mouth regions Lake stickleback embryo: expression only in mouth regions Red arrows indicate regions of Pitx1 expression.
