Protocol vs Interface vs Service

I have been confused by these terms for quite some time, particularly between Protocol and Interface. From what I have understood, A protocol is how the layer communicates with a corresponding layer (OSI Model) and provides a service to the layer above it and the medium through which it does so, is by the interface. So does that mean that the protocol contains services and interfaces?

Please correct me if I am wrong. Thank You!

I put in effort this time. Sorry for not doing so the last time!

Cheers!
