What layer of the earth drives the tectonic plates into motion?
All layers of the Earth are moving, in some fashion.
How are minerals linked to plate tectonics?
Minerals Make up rocks, Which make up the layers of the Earth(Crust, Lithosphere, asthenosphere, and Mantle)(Minerals make up the inner and outter core). The layers of the earth(crust) make up plate tectonics; convection currents and Plates(made of rock)
Why do scientists believe that the earth is made up of different layers?
for the same reason that if you pour oil on top of a jar of water the oil stays on top. the layers of the earth have different densities and so the heaviest stuff sank to the center while the lighter stuff rose to the top.
What tectonic plates caused the earthquake?
PLATES
What is plates when there is an earthquake?
Tectonic plates influence earthquakes because of convection cells that move the plates around. When the plates collide, they cause a shockwave of energy released in the form of a earthquake.

layers of film or glass plates?
Are plates of earth similar as the layers of earth Are they the same thing?
No. The layers of Earth are portions of the planet that are position one on top of another, somewhat like the layers of an onion. The plates are sections are sections of the uppermost layers that break up the surface of the planet.
