Evoltion 'says' nothing of the sort for either.

No, they are not. THere is nothing that even suggests this.

The cells determine what the organism is. When the organism changes/evolves/mutates it is because the cells did so and they do so because their DNA tells them to. Therefore, the DNA determines practically everything and expresses itself through the cells which in turn (and following the blueprint inside the DNA) divide, clump together, specialize, etc. to form the overall organism.
Research over the last few years seems to indicate that cells somehow sense each other and respond to one another. I've never heard them called independent sentient organisms, nevertheless them seem to be aware. Whether or not they are self-aware remains to be determined. However, if cells do turn out to be self-aware (at the independent cell level) then the Roe -vs- Wade arguments will most definitely have to be revisited.
