Answer:

constellation is a location in the sky in which people with good imaginations have been able to see the pattern of visible stars as tracing out an outline of some object or person: the big dipper, Taurus the Bull, etc. The stars involved have in common that they are fairly bright as seen from Earth. They may have quite different distances and these arrangements are quite temporary, as over thousands of years the stars move and form different patterns.

Galaxies, except for the Milky Way galaxy that we belong to, are very far away and only three are visible without telescopes. Galaxies very in stellar content from a few tens or hundreds of millions to a few trillions. The stars in a galaxy are held together by gravity, and galaxies typically last billions of years. Nearby galaxies are typically tens of thousands to millions of times as far away as nearby stars. Galaxies take on a variety of shapes, from spirals like the Milky Way and Andromeda, to giant ellipticals to irregulars like the Magellanic clouds.

All the stars in all the constellations visible from Earth are in the Milky Way and reasonably close to us in it.
