In addition, prokaryotic cells generally lack membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotic cells of the same species typically share a similar cell morphology and cellular arrangement. Most prokaryotic cells have a cell wall that helps the organism maintain cellular morphology and protects it against changes in osmotic pressure.

An extensive, tightly bound glycocalyx adhering to the cell wall is called a capsule. Phagocytosis involves several distinct steps including attachment of the microbe to the phagocyte through unenhanced or enhanced attachment, ingestion of the microbe and its placement into a phagosome, and the destruction of the microbe after fusion of lysosomes with the phagosome.

The pathogenicity of an organism is determined by its virulence factors. Virulence factors enable that bacterium to colonize the host, resist body defenses, and harm the body. Most of the virulence factors are the products of quorum sensing genes.
