The National Guard doesn't discriminate by prior service - I've got friends from my submarine days who are in the Air National Guard, and the Regular Army National Guard. They welcome Vets since that's less military training they have to spend money on.
Probably. Contact an Army recruiter for details related to your specific situation.
There are actually two National Guards, but when people say the National Guard they are probably (but not necessarily) talking about the Army National Guard. The other National Guard is the Air National Guard which is to the Air Force what the Army National Guard is to the Army.
No. There is only an Army National Guard and an Air National Guard.
The Army National Guard and Air National Guard do work together. Although, most missions are different and require that they work on different tasks. You will most definitely see Army and Air National Guard working together on a big project.

The National Guard Bureau is over the Army/Air National Guard, but under the Dept. of Defense and Dept. of The Army, & Dept.of the Air Force. The Bureau get's their info from the latter 3 Dept.'s and funnels it down to the Army/Air National Guard. Note: The Bureau and the Army & Air National Guard's have different official seals.
Interstate Transfer is a moot point - there is no Interstate Transfer in the Army Reserve - there is only unit transfer. The Army Reserve is completely federal, and not delegated to individual states in any way. You would have to get a conditional discharge from the National Guard, then enlist into the Army Reserve.
No. There is only an Army National Guard and an Air National Guard.

If you are referring to the U.S. Army and Air Force reserves, yes, they are known as the "National Guard." Actually U.S. Army Reserve and Air Force Reserve are federal reserve forces. Air and Army National Guard are state forces that can be federalized by the President.
The Army does not fly planes. The Marines, Air Force, Navy, National Guard, and Coast Guard do.
The National Guard serves as a reserve component of two federal forces - the Army (Army National Guard), and Air Force (Air National Guard). Policies, procedures, etc. adopted by these branches are subsequently adopted by their National Guard components.
Army Air Forces Antisubmarine Command's motto is 'Guard With Power'.
Depends there are two national guard units the Army National Guard under overall authority of the U.S. Army and the Air National Guard under overall supervision of the U.S. Air Force
