The gooey innards of a cell. The Cytoplasm is the basic mixture of ions, proteins, and other substances dissolved in water that fill the interior of the cell.

One of the functions it performs is Cytoplasm Glycolysis, the conversion of Glucose glucose into ATP atp. For cells that lack organelles to have more advanced metabolisms, this is what they rely on for energy. It is also used to store molecules in the cell and to grow the cell's size.

Requirements

No requirements.

Processes

Cytoplasm Glycolysis: Glucose glucoseATP atp

The first method of energy production available in the game. Less efficient than Glycolysis in other organelles (e.g. Metabolosomes), it requires only a steady influx of Glucose glucose and does not change speed in response to environmental factors.

Modifications

No modifications.

Effects

Any other organelle may replace Cytoplasm at no extra mutation point cost (beyond the cost of that organelle).

Upgrades

No upgrades.
