3. There is none. There is no major requirement for medicine, so the best undergrad degree is the one you enjoy most. You have the rest of your life to study everything on that list; spend some time now learning things you won't have a chance to learn again for a long time.

Nursing degrees do NOT prepare you for medical school, so steer clear of that (response to another answerer, not your question, obviously) Any of those you listed will serve you well.

As long as do well in the required core classes (1 year of bio with lab, 1 year of general chem with lab, 1 year of organic chem, 1 year of physics, and 1 year of calculus), and you do well on the MCAT, you can get into medical school with ANY major.
