No, Yosemite National Park is in California. Yosemite also does not cross state borders into neighboring states like Grand Canyon National Park does. The park is entirely in California.
Alaska has eight national parks (some are also preserves), three national monuments, and three national preserves not connected with any national park. California has seven national parks (or eight, if you count Sequoia and Kings Canyon as separate), six national monuments, and one national preserve. I'll let you decide which state has the "greatest number."
The Grand Canyon is the most famous site in Arizona. There is also the petrified forest national park.
Yellowstone National Park is probably the most famous US National Park due to the fact that it was also the first national park in the world. Yellowstone also consistently ranks in the top three or four most visited US National Parks, even though access to the park is limited during seven or eight months of the year due to weather. Other famous US National Parks are: Great Smoky Mountains National Park Yosemite National Park Grand Canyon National Park
Redwoods National Park is the only national park that contains coastal redwoods. They are also found in several California State Parks, and in Muir Woods National Monument.

If it weren't for John Muir and his writings, we probably would not have Yosemite National Park as we know it today. He was also involved in the creation of the Grand Canyon, Kings Canyon, Petrified Forest, and Mt. Rainier National Parks.
That's the Joshua Tree. In fact, we have an entire park of them:Joshua Tree National Park (U.S. National Park Service) in southern California.
The National Park Service website is a great online available resource for information about the Grand Canyon. They have a listing of news and events available. They also have information about lodging, facilities, and camping.
