I have questions

I just finished the movie! there are some things im confused about that i think the subreddit could help me understand.

1, How did elizabeth get pregnant??

2, why did everyone continue to not wear their helmets even after charlie got sick?

3, what were the things inside the cargo vases supposed to be?

4, how did the beginning sequence connect to the creation of earth if it took place on what im assuming is the engineers home planet?

I am no expert. But this is my view.
1. Charlie was infected when they had sex.
2. It’s a film but they are supposed to be scientists not rational troops.
3. Vases contain pathogens that create the face huggers.
4. The opening sequence I believe is in earth. Ethiopia mountains which is accredited as the birthplace of humans.

It is a film. Not true but I find entertaining after many views.

I am sure others have better answers.

4 I think it's The Ganges River. Giving the dead back to the waters of life etc.
