Quantum biology explores how living systems may exploit quantum phenomena—coherence, tunneling, and entanglement—to enhance biological functions. Evidence from photosynthesis, enzyme catalysis, magnetoreception, and possibly neural processes suggests that quantum effects can be functional under warm, noisy environments. This essay examines experimental and theoretical insights, highlighting quantum mechanics’ potential role in life, complexity, and cognition.
