Bacteria are single-celled organisms. They keep multiplying as long as food is available. A colony can have a million cells.

Bacteria have ONE cell - they are single-celled organisms.
You can have a colony of millions of bacteria - but they are still individual organisms.
BTW - a virus has no cells! It is not even generally accepted as being "alive", and it consists of a protein coat (sometimes also with a small membrane) around a tightly-coiled strand of nucleic acid. There is no cytoplasm - so it is not a cell.

actually, all bacteria are prokaryotic cells but all prokaryotic cells are tno bacteria. prokaryotic cells are divided into 2 domains: bacteria and archaea. archaea are single celled microorganisms but they differ from bacteria because they evolved differently and are classified in different domains.
