Which is to say, you can use quantum mechanics to augment Newtonian physics, but the latter dominates results in most usages.
Biology does have the quirk that sometimes (I guess because exponential growth / propagation?) nuances dominate observed result.
But usually things proceed as expected. Otherwise, we'd be killing people left and right with pharmaceutical side effects!
