The hardened layer of lava is called "igneous rock".
batholiths
Magma that hardens in a horizontal crack typically forms a thin, sheet-like intrusion called a sill. Sills are created when magma is injected parallel to the existing rock layers. As the magma cools and solidifies, it forms a horizontal layer of igneous rock within the crack.
If the magma has hardened before being exposed at the surface it would be considered an intrusive igneous rock. It is hardens at or near the surface, it would be called extrusive igneous rock.
A layer of cooled magma is called a pluton. Plutons form when magma intrudes into the Earth's crust and cools slowly underground, forming large bodies of igneous rock such as granite. They are commonly found in mountainous regions.

No.
magma is a layer of earth surface.Or the hot layer of earth. P.S I am not sure of the answer

Molten rock is magma. It is called lava once it has cooled and hardened.
The core
no way its basically sand and hardened magma (ya know, the mantle layer of the earth). If it was lava we'd be dead. xP
Hardened magma in a volcano's pipe that remains when softer rock around it has worn away is called the volcanic neck.

Magma is underground, when it reaches the surface it becomes lava. So solidified magma is really lava. The lava flow is the liquid lava as it goes down the mountain, when hard its just hardened lava.
