cell means the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms; they may exist as independent units of life (as in monads) or may form colonies or tissues as in higher plants and animals and bacteria means small single celled organisms from the Moneran kingdom. They are known as prokaryotes, which are classified together because they lack nuclear membranes. They are the most primitive living beings, but help in the nitrogen cycle.

A bacteria is a type of cell. Plain and simple. As stated before, it is a prokaryotic cell and an organism in it's own right but regardless of it's being a single-CELLed organism, it is still a cell.
There are many differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, including the lack or presence of a nucleus and other organelles but they are still both cells. Also, there are single-celled eukaryotic organisms as well.

A bacteria is also a cell but of high level.
a cell is mainly the smallest unit of life that takes part in a chemical reaction.therefore a bacteria does not take part in chemical rections.
a cell does not bring about disease and sickness but a bacteria is a pathogen of diseases like staphilococus

Cells are the structural and functional units of all living organisms. Some organisms, such as bacteria, are unicellular, consisting of a single cell. Other organisms, such as humans, are multicellular, or have many cells—an estimated 100,000,000,000,000 cells! Each cell is an amazing world unto itself: it can take in nutrients, convert these nutrients into energy, carry out specialized functions, and reproduce as necessary. Even more amazing is that each cell stores its own set of instructions for carrying out each of these activities.
There are two general categories of cells: prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Bacteria are the best known and most studied form of prokaryotic organisms.

A cell is a part of a multicellular plant or animal. It can not exist on its own.
A bacteria is a one-cellled organism hat may or may not be pathogenic. It can exist on its own. Some have means of transportation - cilia, flagella, pseudopods. There are other types of one-celled organisms- yeasts, algae and etc.

They are completely different things. A bacteria is one kind of single-celled organism, while a cell is the functional unit of an organism. It can be an organism itself, or a single cell in a multicellular organism.
