As a Muslim Architect I feel qualified to answer this question correctly. Any architectural element which you see in a mosque actually has no religious significance at all. None. Zero. Zilch. A mosque has to have only two things: it must be a clean place, and it must indicate the direction of prayer. The minaret was developed as a practical answer to the challenge of projecting the human voice to call all people in the vicinity to come to prayer. In Islam, we use the human voice to call people to prayer. So a tall structure, to allow the one who makes the call to project his voice to all the buildings around the mosque, is what was needed. Now, of course, we have microphones and speakers. Yet, still, the speakers are lifted up on a tower in order for the call to be heard. As far as the dome, I do not know how that was developed; but it is not a requirement and it has absolutely no authentic religious reason. Muhammad never ordered the building of neither a minaret nor a dome. Women also go to the mosque for prayers.
