A **genome** is the genetic information of cells. Genomes can be altered in the **Genome** **Editor**.

A genome contains 40 modes.

## Modes

A genome mode consists of cell settings, including cell type, split mass, etc.

While a genome consists of 40 modes, only one of them can be active on a cell at a time. This allows the organism to have multiple modes with different functions.

Some cell types have additional cell settings for the selected mode. This setting is kept even if the cell type is unselected.

A mode consists of 54 settings in total.

**Make adhesin**
**Type:** Switch
If checked, this cell's children will be linked by adhesin.
**Default:** No

If checked, this cell will gain extra nutrient priority when it is dangerously low on mass.
**Default:** Yes
**Cell type**
**Type:** Cell type selection
The type of the cells that are on this mode.
