PlaceHolder: It is used to dynamically add controls on a web page. This[^] example shows how to use it.

ContentPlaceHolder: It is used in master pages to define the area that will be filled by content pages at runtime. This[^] example shows how to use it.

A PlaceHolder control is used as a container for any controls you wish to add and can be used on any page. A ContentPlaceHolder is used to hold content from Content Pages and can only be used on a Master Page.

Look here for documentation on MSDN:
