single cell, able to survive on its own living with many other cells of the same kind. Ex. bacteria (E. coli).
Colonial organisms have some of the same characteristics of multicellular organisms. The difference between a multicellular organism and a colonial organism is that individual organisms from a colony can survive on their own, while cells from a multicellular organism cannot.
Tissue organisms have specialized cells grouped together to perform specific functions, whereas colonial organisms consist of individual organisms living together in a close association but can still function independently. In tissue organisms, cells are interdependent and work together, while in colonial organisms, individual organisms are not interdependent and can survive on their own.

Multicellular organisms are organisms with more than one cell, the cells of which are usually specialized. A large colonial organism is an organism of many cells that are loosely attached to each other and that show little or no specialization among themselves. Multicellular organisms are capable of surviving on their own while colonial organisms are not.

Colonial organisms first appeared on Earth about 600-700 million years ago during the Ediacaran Period. These organisms were multicellular but lacked specialized tissues or organs.
Colonial protists
No , most protists are unicellilar , some are colonial.
