I wouldn't worry about the "quantum entanglement" part, which is not needed for the more general claim that we don't know squat about consciousness.

Anyway, I disagree - embryology, muscles, and metabolism are not mysteries in the way that consciousness is. I find it astonishing you would even make the comparison.
