at the macroscopic stage, glucose is replaced by nutrients, nutrients, and ATP is used by the body for everything (yes, this is a simplification). The metabolism tab will be represented by sliders responsible for the processing of substances; the further to the right the slider, the faster the metabolism. Types of metabolism are inherited from the early multicellular stage (for example, you will not be able to photosynthesize if you did not have at least one chloroplast in the colony before moving to macroscopy), there are such types of metabolism as:
Aerobic: converts nutrients into ATP, produces heat for the body
Photosynthesis: converts sunlight and water into nutrients
chemosynthesis: converts hydrogen sulfide into nutrients
