the plate tectonics will be flat and no more volcanoes.
It is important so that they can possibly predict future earth movements as to when and where it will happen. Ex: earthquakes
By plate Tectonics
global tectonics in which the lithosphere divided into a number of crustal plates
because of the plates moving
Plate tectonics, the movement of the large pieces of the earth's crust, give rise to great stress along the boundaries of the plates. Wikipedia has a post on plate tectonics, and a link is provided.

Earth.
There are plate tectonics in earth and when they move, earth quakes happens. Sometimes the plate tectonics can move a continent. This is called the continental drift. Earth quakes can make volcanoes explode, tsunamis happen, and continents break. For example: The continent Pangaea. Because of the plate tectonics that caused earthquakes, tsunamis, and continents braking apart, the Pangaea broke up in to more continents and the continents broke into even more. That is why there are 7 continents in the world now. Earth quakes don't cause all these. Plate tectonics does. Plate tectonics makes earth quakes. Then, other horrible stuff happens.
But plate tectonics is the theory which suggests that the Earth's crust is made up of solid plates moving relative to each other. Plate tectonics and the plate tectonics theory aren't really two separate things. However plates are pieces of the Earth's crust which are moving.

Plate tectonics
Plate tectonics is a continuous process of individual plate movements involving the entire lithosphere.
No it does not.
The theory of plate tectonics explains large scale motion of the earth's lithosphere.
