The molecular concentration of resources varies between and within cells during a simulation. The concentration of a particular resource is governed by spatial and environmental cues, such as signals from neighboring cells. Within a given cell the location of a given resource can be distributed between the internal compartment (e.g. cytosol) and the surface (e.g. membrane). The differentiate state of cells are color-coded to enable visual distinction of cells and the composition of a region: head (blue), trunk (yellow) and tail (purple). Concentrations of representative resources inside (I) and on the surface (S) are provided.
