Original human part of the whole human

"Original human part of the whole human"

What was the first original human body part of the whole designed or created rather? Does anyone know if DNA tells which part of the human body gets constucted first?

Every design or creation has got to have a start point, right?

And then I'd investigate these structures for further clues......

I don't think the question is even really applicable. Define a framework for what you consider "Human". There's nothing we possess in our current physiology which isn't shared by at least some other life forms. Perhaps in different proportions or adapted for a different use...

Perhaps an example of one existing framework for rigid definitions might help you clarify.

Stars for you my friend!!!

It amazes me, with the wealth of data and info out there, that there are those that run with anything they hear . . . instead of doing a little research on their own.

If you wish to disprove a concept, you should always have a foundation of learning in that you are trying to disprove.
