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)
What type of rocks make up the earths core?

What are the 3 types of rocks that make up the earth's crust?
The three main types of rocks that make up the Earth's crust are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and compression of sediment. Metamorphic rocks are formed from the transformation of existing rocks under high pressure and temperature.
Do rock make the crust of earth?
Yes, rocks make up the Earth's crust. The crust is composed of various types of rocks such as igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. These rocks are constantly changing through the processes of plate tectonics, erosion, and volcanic activity.
