They're all there, every single one. And it's hardly even 1% of everything. This is a BIG galaxy.

The constellations are usually described as being visible constellations, so yes, all constellations are made up of stars in our own galaxy. Stars in other galaxies, even the very nearest ones, the Magellanic Clods, are not visible to the naked eye.

Extra galactic supernovae can be naked eye visible, but they wouldn't be described as parts of a constellation.

good question, yes stars that we can see are from our galaxy only. Stars from other galaxies are not possible to see because their individual light gets mixed with all the other stars in there galaxy. its like looking for your car in a parking lot at night from a mile away with your car lights on and everyone else"s lights on. All you would see is a big light but u cant make out your car.

As far as I know from my observing experience, the ONLY extra galactical object seen with the naked eye is the Andromada Galaxy (M31). All other naked eye wonders are part of the Milky Way.

Many of the "stars" in constellations are actually galaxies - but otherwise any star that you can see with the naked eye is most definately in this galaxy.
