How many daughter cells does mitosis produce, and how do they compare to the parent cell?

Two daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent (2n)

Explanation

Mitosis produces two daughter cells, each with the same (diploid, 2n) chromosome number as the original parent cell. This is because the chromosomes were duplicated in interphase, and the sister chromatids were distributed equally - one to each daughter cell. This contrasts with meiosis, which produces four cells each with half (haploid, n) the chromosome number.
