the jugulars carry blood from the head and neck to the heart. Internal refers to the location in which it sits in relation to the other jugular veins
In humans there is one external and one internal jugular vein. The internal jugular vein is much larger (about twice the diameter) of the external jugular. In the cat there are a pair of each vein but the external jugular vein is about twce as large as the internal. (Opposite of humans.)
The external jugular veins in fetal pigs are relatively larger compared to humans, as pigs have a more prominent external jugular vein. In contrast, the internal jugular veins in pigs and humans are more comparable in terms of size. The anatomical differences between the two species may account for these variations.
jugular veins...internal and external
The relative sizes of the external and internal jugular veins of a fetal pig and a fetal human are relatively the same size. This finding is similar in all mammals.

The areas supplied by the carotid artery are primarily drained by the internal jugular vein and the external jugular vein. The internal jugular vein collects blood from the brain, face, and neck, while the external jugular vein drains the superficial structures of the head and neck. Additionally, smaller veins such as the facial vein and the thyroid veins also contribute to draining regions supplied by the carotid artery.
The jugular vein is not located on the wrist; it is primarily found in the neck. There are two main jugular veins on each side of the neck: the internal and external jugular veins, which drain blood from the head and neck back to the heart. If you're looking for major veins in the wrist, you would be referring to the radial and ulnar veins.
internal jugular and subclavian veins
Penetrating injuries to the neck can damage the jugular vein. Sometimes it also get damaged with bleeding during Central venous line, a procedure which involves cannulation of the neck veins for feeding or monitoring.
No, the jugular veins drain deoxygenated blood from the head. The internal and external carotid arteries carry blood to the brain.
