My apologies for the incorrect response. The correct answer is:

The source of energy that fuels the movement of Earth's plates and the formation of igneous rock from molten magma is heat from Earth's interior. This heat is generated by the radioactive decay of elements in the mantle and core, as well as residual heat from the planet's formation.
