Antecedent conditions

Antecedent conditions refer to the specific circumstances or factors that must be present before an event occurs or a situation unfolds. In general knowledge, they can be thought of as the prerequisites or underlying causes that contribute to an outcome. For example, in a scientific experiment, the antecedent conditions would include the controlled variables and initial settings that affect the results. Understanding these conditions helps in analyzing why something happens and in predicting future outcomes based on established principles.
