No, I can't imagine any situation whereby the universe is
deterministic or completely repeatable on replay, even
replicating the original conditions.


Of course universe is not completely deterministic and
not repeatable on reply - but that in no way means quantum
effects in biology a role of any significance. The source
of non-determinism is chaotic effects on essentially every
level. As in this simple example:

How is this simulation non-deterministic? It's produced by a computer
running an algorithm. Not only is it deterministic but it is completely
repeatable.

Chaos is NOT a source of randomness in nature.
