Paula,
If Adam was not deceived, he knew that God had told the truth and was not lying.  Therefore he also knew two things that God had said.  He knew that they were allowed to eat from every tree that had seed bearing fruit.  He also knew that only one tree was forbidden.  Therefore the only logical conclusion was that the fruit that was forbidden did not have seeds.  We also see that Adam made no attempt to look for the seeds but he silently ate.  He knew the truth, yet he disobeyed God with his eyes wide open. Again, shame on Adam.
