There are two components. Man made substances and natural substances which deplete ozone.
The greenhouse effect and the ozone layer are two separate environmental issues. The greenhouse effect is primarily linked to the increase in greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide trapping heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming. The ozone layer, on the other hand, is located in the stratosphere and protects life on Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation. Actions that deplete the ozone layer, such as releasing chlorofluorocarbons, have a greater impact on the ozone layer than the greenhouse effect.
The ozone hole is a natural occurrence. You cannot prevent it. You might keep it from starting sooner, have more ozone in it, or from lasting longer.... but you cannot stop it from forming once a year at each pole when it is late winter / early spring there.
The ozone layer lies in the stratosphere. It does not lie between 2 layers. Some ozone is there in troposphere.
Only oxygen can "build up" the ozone layer. The "ozone layer" contains some ozone which is just three oxygen atoms bound together. Oxygen is normally found as two atoms bound together as O2, but if an O2 molecule is struck with light at 215nm (or shorter) it will break into two individual oxygen atoms which can then bind to an O2 to form O3. O2 + photon > 2 O O2 + O > O3 (ozone) The ozone layer, like the rest of the atmosphere, is comprised of about 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen plus the usual host of trace gases... and the extra ozone.
The ozone is founded in atmosphere at ozone layer. It is founded at ground level as pollutant.
There are not two gases in the layer but one. Ozone is the only gas present in the ozone layer.

The ozone layer consists of only one thing. And that thing is ozone.

The stratosphere is the layer of the atmosphere that contains two distinct parts: the lower stratosphere and the upper stratosphere. The stratopause boundary separates these two regions, with the lower stratosphere characterized by a temperature inversion and the upper stratosphere containing the ozone layer.
You can find ozone in any layer of the atmosphere, but in the lower layers it does not last long. The so-called ozone layer is in the lower portion of the stratosphere, at a height where it takes a long time to dissociate.
There is no difference between the two. The global depletion of ozone is the hole over ozone only.
there is no black hole, but a thinning of the ozone levels over the Antarctic every winter. This has been happening for centuries due to a lack of sunlight hitting the oxygen in the area. Because ozone decays so quickly, sunlight must hit oxygen to create more ozone or the thinning occurs. The hole disappears once sunlight hits the area.
