After mitotic cell division, each daughter cell contains the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
diploid
The number of genes varies from chromosome to chromosome and the number of chromosomes varies from species to species (from as few as 1 single chromosome per cell to as many 30,000 chromosome pairs per cell). Human cells have 23 chromosome pairs per cell.
A normal human cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46. If you had an average of 40 trillion cells in your body that had 412 chromosomes you would have 4456 trillion chromosomes in your body. Note that some mature cells in your body do not have any chromosomes, some have 26 chromosomes and some cells have 99 chromosomes.
There are 46 chromosomes per cell, with 22 pairs and an XX pair for females or an XY pair for males.
After meiosis, each daughter cell has half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. For example, in humans the parent cell would have 46 chromosomes, but after meiotic cell division, the daughter cells will each have 23 chromosomes.
After mitotic cell division, each daughter cell contains the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Cell Division.

Same number as the parent cell
Human cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes, giving a total of 46 per cell.
The number of genes varies from chromosome to chromosome and the number of chromosomes varies from species to species (from as few as 1 single chromosome per cell to as many 30,000 chromosome pairs per cell). Human cells have 23 chromosome pairs per cell.
Meiosis is a process of reduction division in which the number of chromosomes per cell is cut in half through the separation of homologous chromosomes in a diploid cell.
That depends on the organism you're looking at. In humans, there are 46 chromosomes per normal somatic cell. 46 chromosomes = 22 homolog pairs + 2 sex chromosomes (XX in women or XY in men)
It depends on what the animal or plant is. For humans, the first division results in 23 chromosomes per cell

Twenty-three chromosomes are in a human egg cell. 22 are autosomes, the other is an X chromosome.
