Which of the following is correct observation?

#Unit 9. Evolution & Diversity of Life Forms
  1. Niche partitioning allows for selection of differential patterns of resource usage, which can drive speciation

  2. This narrowing of phenotypes causes a reduction in genetic diversity in a population

  3. Extreme phenotype is favored over other phenotypes, causing the allele frequency to shift over time in the direction of that phenotype

  4. The phenotypes grade become wide and caused increases the genetic diversity in a population

An enzyme-catalyzed reaction was carried out with the substrate concentration initially a thousand times greater than the Km for that substrate.  After 9 minutes, 1% of the substrate had been converted to product, and the amount of product formed in the reaction mixture was 12 micromol.  If, in a separate experiment, one-third as much enzyme and twice as much substrate had been combined, how long would it take for the same amount (12 micromol) of product to be formed?
