Life is Quantum Biology

Origin of Life

The Origin of Life is based on a chemical change leading to cellular structure in organic life-this change creates a self-contained system capable of metabolic function. Simple organic molecules that were present in the early stages of the Earth spontaneously assemble into more complex structures. The fundamental processes of life, at the molecular level, are influenced by quantum mechanics, a branch of physics that describes the behavior of particles at very small scales, suggesting that quantum effects like superposition and tunneling play a significant role in biological functions like photosynthesis, olfaction, and potentially even consciousness, despite the seemingly chaotic environment of a living cell.
