Answer: anaerobic respiration

Explanation:

Anaerobic respiration is simply respiration in the ABSENCE OF OXYGEN.

A positive nitrate test mean Escherichia coli reduces NO3 (Nitrate) to NO2 (Nitrite). This is based on its ability to produce nitrate reductase enzyme that catalyze the reduction process. And note that this reaction occurs in the ABSENCE OF OXYGEN.

This makes E. coli an ANAEROBE ( an organism that can survive in the absence of oxygen)

Answer:

I did some research for you and I found this. I hope it helps you.

Explanation:

"Continental drift and sea-floor spreading became widely accepted around 1965 as more and more geologists started thinking in these terms. By the end of 1967, Earth’s surface had been mapped into a series of plates (Figure 10.16). The major plates are Eurasia, Pacific, India, Australia, North America, South America, Africa, and Antarctic. There are also numerous small plates (e.g., Juan de Fuca, Nazca, Scotia, Philippine, Caribbean), and many very small plates or sub-plates. For example the Juan de Fuca Plate is actually three separate plates (Gorda, Juan de Fuca, and Explorer) that all move in the same general direction but at slightly different rates."
