They are two different protocols. Most (probably all) N routers and networks cards can also do G and probably B protocol. Anything labeled as G will only do G and in amlost all cases B.
N is faster than G (but you'd never notice the speed difference if you are just connecting to the internet, they are both way faster than a home internet connection.
N should, technically, have a bit longer range than G, but in real-life most people don't see a great deal of difference here.

Is 802.11a compatible with 802.11b?
It depends entirely on when they were made. If it was within the year it came out then you probably have a 50/50 chance. Most of the older b ONLY devices probably not. The dual b/g may have a better chance of it being compatible as it was around that time so much better chance. The b/g/n capable should have it already built in.
To transmit and receive signals to and from multiple nodes in a three-story house what type of antenna should an access point use?
You should buy an omnidirectional antenna with a high gain (measured in dBi) if you have a wireless G or B router. If not, I recommend you to buy a wireless N router that comes with 3 antennas. It really increases your signal strength and range. You don't need to have a wireless N adapter to use it, as it supports the older modulations
