The Quark Side - Quantum Physics Podcast
Entanglement in Nature: The Hidden Physics of Biology

Om avsnittet
Quantum biology explores whether life itself uses phenomena like superposition, entanglement, and tunneling.
Emerging evidence suggests plants may exploit quantum coherence for highly efficient photosynthesis, while birds could rely on quantum effects to sense Earth’s magnetic field. Even enzymes—and possibly smell—may depend on quantum tunneling.
A concise look at how biology may bridge the quantum and classical worlds, with implications for energy, medicine, and our understanding of life itself.
