Protists would happen. Or more specifically certain species of protists, that I cannot name, that 'hunt' for light.

More interesting if you could put artificial chloroplasts into animal cell. Melvin Calvin (of Calvin cycle fame) was working on this line of research of artificial chloroplasts when I heard him give a lecture ~ 20 years ago, does anyone know outcome of research ?
