Bow chicka wow wow, the cell has a new plasmid, it gives you a copy but it doesnt seem to make anything...the organism then eats the cell, and gains 292eu.

Stored sugars: 451

Ideal stingers. If possible convert all but one of the organisms cells into jellyfish style stinging cells.

The organism doent have the right genes to produce cnidocytes, and if you can come up with any more examples lets hear em.

Search for more sugar and littler cells, eat them. Continue to grow. Begin specializing individual component cells.

Lysosomes to produce acid filled vacuoles...

(Sorry if I'm butting in but I've been lurking this thread. It's awesome.)

Theres sugars almost all around, and specialize how? what kind of cells? lysozomes arnt cells, and they are more or less, acid filled vacuoles.

Yes but making a sacrificial cell(s) on the outside of said critter with a large lysosome vacuole would be a nasty surprise for anything that tried to eat you.

Like stinging caterpillars, only really small. And explosive.

Sacrifical cells like that are more for when its to late to save the "I'm b'ing eat'd!" situation...

Dedicate certain cells to do certain tasks, creating organs. Do not do this until you have at least a couple dozen component cells. Consume sugar and cells until you can gain the required cells.

This cell is going to divide sometime right? The adaptation isn't to save the cell being attacked (Hence the explosive caterpillar analogy) but rather to save other cells of its species elsewhere by killing whatever tried to eat it.

It would be like having your body infected by suicide bombers.

White blood cell: "Stop right there miscreant we'll have none of this rampant eating! Prepare to be lysed immediately!"
Cell with suicide sacs: "Ahh, No! Fight on my brothers! Live for me!"
*Lysosome vacuoles explode*
White blood cell: "Curse you! I can no longer contain my cytoplasm! I'm meelllting..."

*Wreckage eaten by other Suicide cells*

Create lysing (membrane-opening) proteins (that don't affect you) and get ready for the golgi body to send them out.

I wonder what it would take to be able to penetrate one organism, devouring it from inside?
Some kind of parasite..
