  1. Wasn't Eve made from Adam's rib and thus shares his DNA?

No, the products of incest.

Hemophilia and all that would be more likely, but no cool identical stuff going on

A blood disease where your blood doesn't clot basically.

It's a disease where you don't stop bleeding when you bleed. The name comes from Latin words for blood and love, like, your body just loves bleeding

Depends on the chromosomes, if adam had two identical ones for each the kids would be clones barring mutations.

[-] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

The chances are around 260k to 1. Factoring Eve's lack of a second sex chromosome, (unless she has swyer syndrome) the equation would be 1/((22²+1)(23²))≈0.00039%

Seeing how we're talking about religion and first man, I don't think we're limited by probability here.

BTW so there are 30k people with identical chromosomes??

[-] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

As you mentioned it depends on chromosomal differences, I just provided the probability of it actually happening.

And, yes. Barring any mutations or trait selectivity, if we all came from the same individual, there would be about 30k identical people of the 8.1b population.

Lol, I read this as "would their kids be bones?"

[-] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

Lol only their mom is bones

[-] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Hmmm, no, because which of your genes you pass down is still a bit random.

[-] ebits21@lemmy.ca 5 points 9 months ago

That good ‘ol XX rib mmm

[-] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

That one version. There actually two different versions of Adam and Eve.

[-] ripcord@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago
[-] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

One was they both created at same time and second version she created from one of his ribs.
