This scenario has been discovered and studied in slime molds.

The green beard effect is one of the three fundamental mechanisms of kin selection. In the 1960s, W.D. Hamilton in his work on the evolution of altruism brought it into the highlight.

Which cell organelle determines if an organism is an autotroph?
otez555 [7]

This is common for plants but there are some bacteria that can photosynthesize as well. If you don't have them you have to feed on other organisms that have energy for you.
