Solution

The process that results in diploid daughter cells is mitosis only.

Here's why:

  1. Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth. In humans, for example, each cell (excluding sex cells) contains 46 chromosomes. When these cells undergo mitosis, their 46 chromosomes are duplicated and divided into two cells, each with 46 chromosomes.

  2. On the other hand, meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells. This process is
