> otherwise it wouldn't be possible to have so much done inside such a small volume, with such small amounts of energy

That's interesting. Could you share your source?



Meh, down voters have no idea what they're talking/reading about and yet they down vote. Not everything about quantum mechanics is voodoo. Sorry, not in the mood to talk about this here any more.

The Wikipedia page is a good start, it has some relevant references to research articles in the Enzyme catalysis and Energy transfer sections: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_biology

Quantum effects are also used inside cells to convert chemical energy to motion. It wouldn't be possible otherwise at that nanoscale.
