Life exists at the boundary of matter, computation, and meaning. It is neither purely quantum nor fully classical, but a selective architect that stabilizes and exploits quantum resources coherence, tunnelling, spin correlations, and photon coupling where they confer functional advantage. Drawing on photosynthetic coherence, radical-pair magnetoreception, protein super radiance, and in vivo spin qubits, I propose Quantum-Enabled Biological Modules (QEBMs): evolved systems that harness transient quantum effects pragmatically. Life’s quantum layer is thus an exquisite adaptation, a universe computing through uncertainty
