When molten rock (lava) flows from a volcano, it covers the surrounding area in a layer of solidified rock. During the eruption, ash can also be thrown up high into the sky by the volcano, and blown by the wind, could settle in a thick, smothering layer. The city of Pompeii suffered from being smothered by volcanic ash.
An active volcano can erupt to allow molten lava to flow down the sides and to cover surrounding areas. During the eruptions, gases and ash can be thrown high into the air. This ash can form a layer over the lava. Every time lava flows and ashes settle, they form layers.
A Stratovolcano has ash and lava layers . Stratovolcanos usually have a very thick lava and explosive eruptions.

The different layers of a volcano are made from the lava and ash produced by the volcano. Some volcanoes have different thicknesses of layers or only one type of layer depending on the kind of eruption and how much ash it produces.

Both, but most of the mass expulsed by the explosion was in the form of ash
They are made of rocks and also hardened layer of ash and lava that have piled on top of each other.
honestly i have no idea. i was trying to find this for a project and i can not find it anywhere. someone please answer.

Lava is a hot liquid from the inside of the earth and ash is a lava powder, which is very hot.
A volcano will spew lava.
lava mud ash
ash
Volcanoes with high levels of water in their lava produce ash, those with dry lava produce no ash.
Lava layer is around 12-14
