Thats a braod question. depends on location also. here they do few things. OSB for outside sheating, 2x4 walls and fiberglass insulation. another was to use 2x4 walls with T-ply. T-ply is like a thick cardboard with what resembles a wax coating so any water would repel.. this stuff is pretty tough. they also did a 1/2" black fiberboard back in the day.. could punch right through it. then all that is covered with some type of siding. vinyl, brick,shake, concrete siding etc.

Most houses. Starting from the inside have,
wallboard(sheet rock).* insulation, sheathing (ply score or plywood or pine boards) finally an out side covering of vinal, alluminum, T-11 sheathing, Clapboards or shakes.
* Some houses insulated for electric heat have a plastic film called a vapor barrier.
