The Big Dipper is one of the most recognizable groups of stars in the sky. The pointer stars in the bowl of the dipper point toward the North Star.

It is the last star at the tip of the handle of the Little Dipper. The Big Dipper's first two bowl stars (often called the pointer stars) point towards Polaris, but Polaris is not in the Big Dipper.
The pointer stars in the Big Dipper point towards the North Star, also known as Polaris. Polaris is located directly above the North Pole and remains nearly stationary in the sky. This makes it a useful navigational tool for finding north.
The Little Dipper, also known as Ursa Minor, contains seven main stars. The two stars at the end of the "dipper" are called the Pointers, as they point toward the North Star.
YES. Ursa Major also contains the big dipper (which is not a constellation, it is an asterism) and the pointer stars are located in the handle of the big dipper.
Merak and Dubhe.
The question is vague. There are many stars called "pointer" stars. For example, two of the stars in Ursa Major lie along a line that passes very near Polaris. A completely different set of stars in Ursa Major form an arc that passes near Regulus. There are plenty of other such astronomical coincidences.
Ursa Major is the constellation. The 2 stars in the bowl of the dipper point to Polaris. Polaris IS the North Star.
Merak and Dubhe, often referred to as the pointer stars, point to Polaris, which many people know as the North Star.
The Big Dipper, or Ursa Major has two stars (sometimes called the pointer stars) which line up directly with Polaris. Those two stars, at the "lip" edge of the Big Dipper, are Dubhe and Merak. Merak is at the "bottom" of the Big Dipper, and Dubhe is right at the "lip".
The two stars in the front of the bowl of the Big Dipper point to Polaris.
