no, it serves no biological purpose in any multicellular organism. some primitive bacteria can use it in their metabolism to help convert their food to ATP though, but they can also use other chemicals similarly.

What isotope is needed to locate a brain tumor?
uranium 238
How many tons of uranium ore are needed to make one kilo of enriched uranium?
A Wikipedia article (see link below) gives the concentration of uranium in ore as 0.01 to 0.25 percent, which is a wide range. If we take 0.1 percent as typical, then 1 tonne (1000Kg) of ore would produce 1 Kg of uranium. This is natural uranium, which is normally enriched by about six times to produce suitable enriched uranium for fuel, so you can say that about 6 tonnes of ore would be needed to give 1 Kg of enriched uranium, but there is considerable variation of this from one source of ore to another
