Organelles are components of microbes that allow them to complete certain processes. Organelles can be added and removed from microbes through the editor.
Structural organelles give cells shape. The cytoplasm is the only organelle in this category.

Predatory Pillus
Stab other cells with it.
A hair-like appendage made of protein found on the surface of certain microbes.
It inflicts damage to other microbes.
Internal Organelles
Organelles placed on the inside of the cell. Many of these organelles perform processes, which take some compounds as input and return different compounds as output. Except the nucleus, they are locked until the cell become a eukaryote.
100 MP
Nucleus
Allows for the evolution of more complex membrane-bound organelles. Costs a lot of ATP to mantain. This is an irreversible evolution.
