I'm afraid your questions doesn't make sense. Chromosomes don't have cells- they are found in cells. Bacteria are unicellular organisms so only consist of one cell, but they are capable of having multiple chromosomes.

In Eukaryotes chromosomes are found in the nucleus but bacteria are Prokaryotes. Since they do not have a nucleus, the chromosomes can be anywhere within the cell. Where it gets tricky is that bacteria can also have molecules called "Plasmids" which are DNA molecules distinct from Chromosomal DNA. Typically Plasmids are circular and Chromosomes are in an X shape, but both are made of DNA which is in the infamous double helix shape.

Good luck :)

What is a difference between a typical animal cell and a bacterial cell?

The main difference between an animal cell and a bacterial cell is that a bacterial cell contains a plasmid, a ring of DNA, opposed to the chromosomes that animal cells possess. There are other differences, such as size (bacterial cells are many times smaller) and whether or not they contain membrane bound organelles, which bacteria do not. Bacteria cells have also flagella/flagellum that an animal cells (except spermatozoa or sperm cells) does not, a "tail" strand that extends out of the cell to propel it forward.
