"In particular, physicists have suggested that entanglement (the quantum interconnection of two or more objects like photons, electrons, or atoms that are separated in physical space) could be occurring in the photosynthetic complexes of plants, particularly in the pigment molecules, or chromophores. The quantum effects may explain why the structures are so efficient at converting light into energy -- doing so at 95 percent or more."
Hmm. Actually photosynthesis is a rather inefficient process. The theoretical maximum efficiency is about 11%, the actual maximum is about 6%, and no crop that I am aware of manages to capture more than 0.5% of the total solar energy.
