    The spinning of the core producing the Earth's magnetic field is not the evidence that supports the theory of Plate Tectonics.

    Explanation:

    The plate tectonics theory deals with the movement of the earth's lithosphere by studying earthquakes, mountain formation, and volcanoes. The spinning of the Earth's core doesn't provide any study towards this theory, it deals with the magnetism and the earth's spin compared to other planets.

    This theory has proved that the earth was once a rigid layer but due to seismic movement, the continental and oceanic rifting occurred forming plates. The plates' motion relative to each other's boundaries can be either by converging, diverging or passing each other (transform).
