Planets have layers because of the gases that form in the solar system.
The giant planets are primarily composed of hydrogen, helium, and other gases. This composition gives the planets their low densities and large sizes compared to terrestrial planets. Additionally, these planets may have a small rocky core at the center, surrounded by layers of gas.
In our solar system all the planets (and Sun) formed from one collapsing nebular. Therefore all the planets have the same stuff inside them. The differences between planets is caused by the differences in their outer layers as the planets formed at different distances form the Sun where the temperatures gradients allowed the condensation of different compounds. When you consider Xenoplanets, we do not know hat they are made of exactly yet.
The inner planets are all considered rocky planets in that under atmospheric layers, they have a rocky surface. The outer planets are made of gas and liquid, and are called gas giants. They have no solid surface. Also, all the outer planets have rings while the inner planets do not.
Planets in our solar system have a layered internal structure due to the process of differentiation during their formation. When these planets were forming, they were melted or partially melted, causing heavier materials to sink to the center and lighter materials to rise to the surface, creating distinct layers based on their densities. This process led to the formation of cores, mantles, and crusts in these planets.

This process has led to the formation of layers with different compositions and properties within each planet.
Venus and Mars
Some planets are made completely of layers of thick gases. Also space exploration has not progressed enough to a point where the layers of other planets have been discovered.
Yes we will move planets cause we screwed our ozone layers.
There are three, the crust, the mantle, and the core.

The cores of all four Jovian planets are made of rock, metal, and gasses. The difference between the planets are the layers that surround the cores.
Terrestrial planets, like Earth, Venus, Mercury, and Mars, have a layered structure with distinct crust, mantle, and core layers. Gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn also have layered structures, consisting of a core surrounded by layers of different densities of gases such as hydrogen and helium.
The Earth's layers contribute to the planet's physical characteristics by the types of rocks these layers produce. The rock formation of the Earth's surface define the physical characteristics of the planet.

Well, with the layers of rock forming over-time thus helping to create structure, to hold the weight of the earth... When the universe was created, the planets were hot massive balls of lava. But, since it is cool in the universe, the planets cooled down on the outside, leaving the lava as the core. Then, as you progress outward from the middle, the layers get cooler. They are different temperatures and the rock is in different conditions.
The interiors of Jovian planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) differ due to variations in composition, temperature, and pressure. These factors influence the formation of different layers within the planets, such as metallic hydrogen in Jupiter and Saturn, icy layers in Uranus and Neptune, and rocky cores in all four Jovian planets. The planets' formation and evolutionary history also contribute to their interior differences.
The inner planets have a layered composition with a dense metallic core made mostly of iron and nickel, surrounded by a silicate mantle and crust. Mercury and Earth have an outer solid crust, while Venus and Mars have thin atmospheres and lack a magnetic field like Earth. These chemical layers contribute to the planets' overall density and geologic processes.
