The passages states that the altruistic acts are common among humans and other mammals and it provides several examples, on basis of which the claim can be supported. However the lecture opposes the claim.
First, the passage provides an example of meerkats, an individual of which acts as guard looking out for a predator, while the rest members of the group are hunting or actually eating. Being a guard, the individual does not get any food and remains hungry. It looks like a clear example of altruism. However, the professor provides some recent findings, which prove the opposite. It was proven that the one who plays a role of guard actually eats before. In case of danger, the guard can escape much easier that the rest of the group. Hence, those animals, which are looking for food are in more danger that the guard. The behavior of the animal does not look like altruism.
Second, the article states that a donation of body organs is pure altruism, because people who donate actually benefit others. To oppose this statement, the professor provides an example of donation of kidney, saying that the donor receives appreciation from other people. The reward is considered valuable for some people. In other words, people's acts might look like altruism, but in fact those acts are performed to get some benefits
