 Entanglement and the Emergence of Life: How Does Quantum Mechanics Influence Biological Systems? Quantum mechanics has long been known to govern the behavior of atoms and subatomic particles, but recent research has shown that it may also play a role in the emergence of life itself. The phenomenon of entanglement, where two particles become intertwined and behave as a single system, is believed to be the key to understanding how quantum mechanics influences biological systems. One of the most promising areas of research is the study of how entanglement might be involved in photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert light into energy. Scientists have found evidence that the energy transfer between molecules involved in photosynthesis may involve entanglement, suggesting that quantum mechanics may play a crucial role in this fundamental biological process. Another area of study is the role of entanglement in the brain. Neuroscientists have long been puzzled by the brain's a...
