Was Adam's body placed in the Ark?

I can't find a verse to support it.

Genesis 5:5 tells us:
5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.

The next set of verses records the generations of Adam. Noah is mentioned in verse 28.

28 And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son:

29 And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the Lord hath cursed.

30 And Lamech lived after he begat Noah five hundred ninety and five years, and begat sons and daughters:

31 And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years: and he died.

32 And Noah was five hundred years old: and Noah begat Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

So, according to Genesis 5, Adam was not in Noah's Ark because he was already dead. There is no Bible verse that states that his body was put in the ark, either.
