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, this means the parent cell has 46 chromosomes and each daughter cell will also have 46 chromosomes. This is what we mean when we say the cells are diploid - they have two complete sets of chromosomes.

  2. On the other hand, meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the
