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
Structural organelles give cells shape. The cytoplasm is the only organelle in this category.

Flagellum | |
|---|---|---|
 | ||
| Movement | ||
| Cytoplasmic Glycolisis | ||
| 0,01 Glucose → 5 ATP
| ||
| +4 Storage +1 Osmoregulation Cost | ||
| Flagella are the basic movement parts of microbes. They allow your microbe to move faster, but also take up more ATP for each consecutively added flagella. | ||

| The predatory pilus is an appendage 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. Expect the nucleus, they are locked until the cell become a eukaryote.

Nucleus
The Nucleus is the centre of the cell, and is responsible for containing the genetic information of eukaryotic cells as well as producing proteins. Every eukaryotic cell has exactly one nucleus; additional nuclei can not be added. Prokaryotes such as bacteria don't have a nucleus.
