An Irreducibly intricate system is one composed of multiple components,
all which are essential for the system to operate.
An Irreducibly intricate system is one composed of multiple components,
all which are essential for the system to work.
We now know that there are in fact tens of thousands of Irreducibly complex systems on the cellular level.
It is a journey fraught
with peril and hardship and breathtaking discovery, a journey Irreducibly unique for each of us.
An Irreducibly complex system is one composed of multiple parts,
all of which are necessary for the system to function.
This does not nullify the concept itself, nor does it negate actual examples of Irreducibly complex biological systems(like the e coli bacterial flagellum).
Behe cites the e coli
bacteria's flagellar system as an example of a complicated Irreducibly complex system which he believes could not
have evolved directly(because it is Irreducibly complex) and most likely did not evolve indirectly(because it is extremely complicated).
