Cells in Thrive are comprised of a variety of functional parts that determine how the cells move, eat, and survive. Each part on a cell contributes to it's overall size, osmoregulation cost, and mass. Every part possesses a unique function or purpose that benefits the host cell, usually by producing energy from compounds or providing the cell with defensive/offensive abilities. Cell parts take the shape of hexes within the editor, and can only be placed adjacently to other hexes.
