Can telepathy and telekinesis exist in biological creatures?

I would like to create a sentient creature with telepathy and/or telekinesis.

• Can either (or both) of these concepts exist biologically?
• If yes, what would the biological mechanism be?
• Would a specialized organ of some sort be needed and how would it interact with the rest of the body?
• How strong could it potentially be? (range, lifting power)
• If this is possible would there be any adverse affects to having the skill and using it?
• Would it be more or less energy efficient that the old fashioned way?

Clearly I would prefer a biologically plausible solution as opposed to...yep...we have telekinetic powers...just accept it.
