    Of course, we should provide only the true information, if you don't have knowledge then don't answer as well.

    Back links: Links coming from other sites to your site (incoming)
    External Links: Links going from your site to other sites (out going)

    Backlinks are links from other sites that go to your site
    External links are links on your sites that go to other sites

    A backlink is any link that is an incoming link by another web page, directory, website, or top level domain. External links are links that is with another website. These two are useful for SEO's but external linking has the best ranking power compared to backlinking. Its like having someone talk about you for your own credit.

    Back-link is a link coming from another website to your own. The number and quality of back-links that your site has can affect your search engine optimization efforts, as some search engines provide significant weight to the back-links of a site.If you are working on an SEO campaign, you should include efforts to get links to your site on related sites with high ranking in search engines for the terms you are targeting. This "link love" will help improve your search engine ranking as well. Try to avoid being linked on link farms as that can hurt your search engine results.

    Internal links: Links that point from one page on your site to another, are far from unimportant. They provide the user experience within your website the structure that helps your users easily find what they’re looking for on your site. And the search engines heavily favor a clear hierarchy in a website’s link structure.Internal links give your website PR high on search engine.

    The differences pointed out are correct, but your figures are not very good. The difference in backlinks and external links should not be that wide. Try to build more backlinks to your site and do not link to other sites unnecessarily.

    I think you have done link exchange on your site that's why its showing external links 108.

    Backlinks are the links that make the visitors come to your site from other pages/sites.
    External links are the links present in your pages that take the visitors away from that page.
