I messaged you but for your last question, you can either call them to see if they have a list of classes specific for UCSC transfers for your major, or go on assist.org and cross reference between a community college to see if a class at UCSC fulfills a certain required class at UCI. But for the most part, I think biology should be pretty straightforward on what classes you need to take. Perhaps ask about which specific math & physics sequence you should take?
