Best hypothesis I have seen is an eaten form turning into the nucleus of the eater.

You mean in the case of the Eukaryotes?

Possibly.

B: Basically the hypothesis proposed by Lynn Margulis. Certain cell structures like mitochodria, chloroplasts etc. started perhaps as captured single cell animals and togethar they and the host evolved into a symbiotic relationship.
