Irreducible complexity (IC) is the argument that certain biological systems with multiple interacting parts would not function if one of the parts were removed, so supposedly could not have evolved by successive small modifications from earlier less complex systems through natural selection, which would need all intermediate precursor systems to have been fully functional. Irreducible complexity has become central to the creationist concept of intelligent design, but the concept of irreducible complexity has been rejected by the scientific community, which regards intelligent design as pseudoscience. Irreducible complexity is one of two main arguments used by intelligent-design proponents to support their version of the theological argument from design, used alongside specified complexity which is supposed to add mathematical support for it.
The creation science argument that evolution cannot explain complex mechanisms because intermediate precursors would be non-functional predated its use in ID. In 1993 Michael Behe, a professor of biochemistry at Lehigh University, presented a variation of the same argument in a revised version of the school textbook Of Pandas and People. In his 1996 book Darwin’s Black Box he called this concept irreducible complexity and said it made evolution through natural selection of random mutations impossible, or extremely improbable. This was based on the mistaken assumption that evolution relies on improvement of existing functions, ignoring how complex adaptations originate from changes in function, and disregarding published research. Evolutionary biologists have published rebuttals showing how systems discussed by Behe can evolve, and examples documented through comparative genomics show that complex molecular systems are formed by the addition of components as revealed by different temporal origins of their proteins.
