Did Adam and Eve have Navels?

Muffled

Jesus in me
God is said to have created Eve from Adam's flesh, no? (Instead of out of the ground, as Adam is said to have been.) If you create a being from someone's flesh, is that not a clone? Since Eve was a woman, she would be transgender, as she originated from male flesh, no?

As for part of the development of a clone being the development of a placenta along with the being--that's basic biology. Even in a five day old blastocyte, you can see the separation--the inner cell mass develops into the being, and the outer outer layer, the trophoblast, develops into the placenta.
Blastocyst - Wikipedia

The placenta is a temporary organ that connects the developing fetus via the umbilical cord to the uterine wall - Wikipedia topic - placenta

I believe I need a scientific statement since this is not usual high school biology and I was not a biology major in college. Obviously in a clone there is no uterine wall and certainly none in Adam..

If Adam is the oldest common male of the human race, and Eve is the oldest common female of the human race, then yes they had navals, since they had parents and were born naturally. They were also born at different times in history.

I believe you have contradicted yourself. If they are first the there are none before them, so no parents.

I believe Adam and Eve are clones of an extinct race from c 30,000 year previous. The gods called them Human but it was not meant to be a description of all living people at the time. There is evidence that other races predate this race but I doubt there is enough information to be certain.

I believe you have said that before and my answer is still the same. I expect my beliefs to have a sound foundation and do not feel I am entitled to them unless they do.

I would ask you to describe this foundation and then present evidence but i really cant be bothered, needless to say, there is a reason why they are called beliefs

Where do you get the idea that they were clones of anything??? What scientific evidence do you have of this?

Humanity evolved from the earliest self replicating cell that existed billions of years ago. Y chromosome Adam and Mitochondrial Eve are nicknames for the oldest common ancestrial male and female to the human race that science can genetically determine. They did not live at the same time, nor does it mean they did not have parents, since they evolved from earlier primates.
