A legally adopted child has all the rights of a biological child for purposes of inheritance under the state laws of inheritance and intestacy.
Yes. Step children have no right to inheritance unless they were legally adopted. In most states, if legally adopted, they have rights of inheritance only if they are minors. An adult child can be disinherited as long as it is done properly by will. In an intestate estate, a legally adopted child is an heir at law. You can check the laws of intestacy for your state at the related question link provided below.
Neither has more right then the other, they are equal in the minds of the law.
Any types of adoptions or parental rights sign offs have to be done in front of the courts. The adopted child could be signed over to another adult as long as that adult is found to be fit enough to be capable of the upbringing of the said adopted child.

Only in the right particular situation of need
Yes, a dependent adult can be adopted.
yes and no. yes being you can be left out of the will the the chose of the person who wrote the will. no being if he/she leaves money of property to you or if he/she leaves money or property to the family of which you were adopted since being adopted means he/she was your legal parental guardian in every way by law. the part I'm not sure about is when an adopted minor, under 18, from and single guardian receives an allowance of money from set deceased guardian that they can't touch till they become an adult because once with the single guardian is gone the sole member of the immediate family is the adopted child who on his 18 birthday is an adult and no longer a dependent of set deceased guardian. the point is in wills make sure they use your full legal name.
When adopted you have the same rights as the biological children to inherit your parents.
Any child can be cut out of a will by the testator. There is no obligation for a parent to leave anything to an adult child. The court will insure that minor children are looked after. By law, an adopted child is the same as a natural child.
Not until the child has reached adult age. In order for the child to be adopted the parent had to give up parental rights so they no longer have rights to the child.
