From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science

A sufficient condition is a condition that, if true, proves that another fact is true. For example:

• "Breathing is a sufficient condition of living." If you are breathing, then you are definitely alive."
• "Having polio is a suffient condition of being infected with poliovirus." If you have polio, then you have definitely been infected with polio virus.

The other type of condition is a necessary condition.
