In what way is the autofocus in A7C the same or different from AF in the A7S III?
The difference is the A7s III as more focus points. And that can help for accuracy.
The A7C has Phase Detection: 693 and Contrast Detection: 425
The a7s III has, Phase Detection: 759 and Contrast Detection: 425

ACCEPTS ALL SONY LENSES?
ACCEPTS ALL SONY LENSES?
The Sony FE (full frame sensor) cameras have a flange focal distance of 18mm. For information about what this means, search for "flange focal distance" on Wikipedia and you'll see a chart of other systems, including other mirrorless systems. The Nikon Z-mount is 16mm, Fujifilm X-mount is 17.7, the Canon EF-M is 18mm, and the Canon RF mount is 20mm, so those are not going to adapt. But there are many other systems, mirrorless, SLR, and other, that have enough difference to make adapters possible. The Leica M, at 27..8mm, has the shortest flange focal distance I know of that is currently adapted. So no, you won't be able to use lenses created for the new Nikon and Canon mirrorless systems, but there are others you can use.

I don't understand all the discussion about APS-C E mount crop sensors. So, will my Sony E 4.5-6.3/55-210 OSS lens for my A6000 work the same on this camera?
To add to Rob’s answer, it kind of depends what you mean by “work the same.”
If you’re asking if putting that lens on the a7c will give you pretty much the same experience as putting that lens on your A6000, the answer is yes. (When I say “experience” I’m mainly referring to the field of view).
What’s happening, though, is that you’d be essentially wasting a bunch of sensor space on the a7c. The a7c has a much bigger sensor than the a6000, so you need to get a full-frame lens if you want to take full advantage of the benefits of a full-frame camera. If you put that lens on a full-frame camera like the A7C, the camera will operate in APS-C mode and only use a smaller portion of its sensor.
But if you’re asking if an APS-C 55-210 lens will “work the same” on this camera as a Full-Frame 55-210? No. The full-frame lens will give you a wider field of view by a factor of 1.5x because it’s able to use the whole sensor.
Sony denotes its Full-Frame lenses by putting “FE” in the model numbers, as opposed to just “E” for APS-C crop lenses.
I hope that helps.

It looks like it's missing that all-important second control dial. Is that the case?
If you are talking about the wheel in front of the shutter button, yes, it was removed.

How is the AF in the A7C the same or different from the AF in the A9/A9II?
The Sony Alpha a7C's Hybrid AF system is similar to the system found in the Sony A7 III, although the AF algorithm is from the recent Sony Alpha a7S III Mirrorless Digital Camera.
