Are those all the courses you have left to finish for your degree, or just the ones left after taking into account the 30+ credits you must take from WGU and any non-transferable courses?
For the most part, you should be able to go on the WGU website to find the course equivalencies that they accept from places like Study.com and Straighterline. I don't know if they have a list published for Sophia or not, but if they don't, Sophia may have its own list.
Once you have a list of courses you plan to take, you can work with your admissions counselor to send them to the evaluations team to verify that they still accept the courses towards the competencies you're planning to meet via course transfer. Also remember that all transcripts need to arrive at WGU by the first of the month before the start of your first term. Once your term begins you will no longer be allowed to transfer in any additional courses.

This might help you: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sophia.org_Equivalency_List I don't think Ethics in Technology and Introduction to Ethics at Sophia are the same thing but it is possible.
