The Zerg are not a race that consists of one single type, such as humans.
Zerg units are completely biological, and so are the 'buildings' that serve as shelter or research 'labs' for the Swarm.
This makes a Zerg colony totally alive, and it must be fed. To provide this nutrition, the Zerg produce a sheet of purple material, also alive, which harvests the nutrients from the ground and feeds it to the buildings.
