Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium that causes tuberculosis, primarily relies on the host's cellular environment for nutrients. It absorbs fatty acids, amino acids, and other organic compounds present in the host's tissues and cells. Unlike many bacteria, it has a unique cell wall structure that allows it to survive in harsh conditions and utilize a limited range of nutrients. Its metabolic processes are adapted to thrive within the macrophages of the immune system.
