Question
what type of cell division produces diploid cells?
Mitosis is a type of cell division where one cell divides to produce two genetically identical daughter cells. Both the parent cell and the daughter cells in mitosis have the same number of chromosomes. In diploid organisms (organisms with two sets of chromosomes), the parent cell is diploid, and the daughter cells produced through mitosis are also diploid. Meiosis, on the other hand, is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, producing haploid cells (cells with one set of chromosomes) from a diploid cell.
