1. You will still create a relationship between your mother and the man how sired you. In that relationship you are the biological child of both parents, there is a biological child-Parent relationship for this or, if you do not enter a child-parent relationship biological is the assumed relationship.
2. For the child-parent relationship between you and your "father" the choices built into Legacy's child-parent relationships are adopted, biological, challenged, disproved, foster, guardian, sealing (an LDS relationship I think) and step. If you do not want to use one of those choices you are free to enter a new term and can invent any wording you feel is appropriate.
