Summary/Abstract: Why complex problems are important in the modern teaching process? How to determine how complex a task or content is? The key to complexity lies in the origin of life. With the increase in complexity, from simple compounds, complex compounds were formed and from complex compounds life was formed. It is the same in teaching, by solving simple problems basic concepts are formed, and the growing complexity of the problem leads to the formation of knowledge. But as all started from simple and later everything got more complex in Praoceaa, can it be determined what the complex task is made of? What are the conditions that influenced the formation of life on Earth, what are the conditions that affect how the student experiences the complexity of the problem task? Does the assessment of a task have to take into account the subjective component or characteristics of the problem solver? Is there a difference between the complexity and difficulty of the problem?
