What is a bacterial colony?
A bacterial colony is a visible clump of bacteria on solid media.
When bacteria are cultivated in the laboratory on solid media (such as nutrient agar), each cell on the agar gel goes through a process of replication forming a visible clump or mound of bacteria known as a bacterial colony.

A bacterial colony is a visible cluster of bacteria that grows on a solid medium such as agar. It originates from a single bacterial cell that undergoes multiple rounds of division to produce a visible group of genetically identical bacteria.
