No, Mercury does not have tectonic plates like Earth. However, its surface shows signs of past tectonic activity, such as scarps or cliffs resulting from the planet's cooling and shrinking.
Unlike Mercury of the moon, Earth is geologically active. Erosion, deposition, and plate tectonics have buried or destroyed most of Earth's craters.
Earth's surface is not as heavily cratered as the moon or Mercury because Earth has active geological processes such as weathering, erosion, and plate tectonics that continuously reshape its surface. These processes help to erase or cover up impact craters over time, maintaining Earth's relatively smoother appearance compared to the heavily cratered surfaces of the moon and Mercury.
In Greek, tectonics is translated as "τεκτονική" (tecktonikí).
Mercury is a planet, whereas the Moon is Earth's natural satellite. Mercury has a metallic core and a thin atmosphere, while the Moon has no atmosphere and is composed mainly of rock. Additionally, Mercury has undergone geological processes such as volcanism and tectonics, while the Moon's surface has remained largely unchanged for billions of years.

Plate tectonics
Volcanoes don't help plate tectonics; volcanoes are the result of plate tectonics.

instruments used in plate tectonics?
yes it represets plate tectonics
