Original sin is about humanity's general sinfulness & fallen nature, which began with Adam. Inherited sin is the idea that we all get blamed individually for Adam's sin, even though we didn't do it. I don't think inherited sin is right - it seems obviously unfair and I don't think it fits with the Bible. To be fair, there are a lot of Christians who disagree with me.
Adam and Eve are fictions (except for Mitochondrial Eve of course).
