This is a complicated question..
There are a few things that we must clarify
The basic definition of mitosis: The division of a cell where the daughter cells (cells resulting from this form of duplication) are genetically identical to that of the mother cell (or original cell).
Mitosis is what we generally consider to occur in somatic cells (of animals). Somatic cells are all the cells of the human body that are not involved in reproduction, so basically they are everything except gametes.
Somatic cells are largely diploid, so they have a complete set of all the DNA you inherited. With this information we can understand the answer to this question. In a single process of mitosis, where only one division occurs, a somatic cell (diploid) will divide into two genetically identical daughter cells (meaning they are also diploid).
That said, these are the products of mitosis in a somatic cell:
1 Diploid somatic cell + Mitosis = 2 Diploid somatic cells (daughters) genetically identical to the parent (parent)
However, theoretically, if the parent is haploid, then mitosis still works to duplicate the DNA that was available in the original. So, in this case 2 haploid daughter cells would be produced because this was the nature of the parent cell.
Mitosis typically starts with diploid cells.
Mitosis produces DIPLOID cells- remember in mitosis your INCREASING the number of CELLS but the chromosome number is the SAME as the parentso a parent that has a (DIPLOID number of 10)will produce at the end of mitosis will produce 2 children with a diploid number of (10)That is why Mitosis is CONSERVATIVE.So in actuality, 1 diploid cell will produce 2 diploid cells in mitosisThe above is only true if the starting cell is itself diploid. However there are plenty of instances, especially in plants, in which cells that are haploid (the ones that give rise to pollen and egg, and endosperm nuclei, for example) or multiploid (hexaploid wheat, for example) undergo mitosis, and the cells that are produced have the same ploidy as the starting cell. Always. As noted above, mitosis is conservative. However, you ought not assume that you started with a diploid cell.
Haploid. They may be diploid when they are first formed, but by the time they undergo all the stages of mitosis, they are haploid.
No - mitosis results in two genetically identical diploid cells.Meiosis creates four haploid cells.
Mitosis occurs in diploid parent cells, meaning they contain two sets of chromosomes (one from each parent). During mitosis, the parent cell divides to produce two genetically identical daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

Haploid. They may be diploid when they are first formed, but by the time they undergo all the stages of mitosis, they are haploid.
Daughter cells in mitosis are diploid, however daughter cells of meiosis are haploid.
A haploid cell only contains 23 chromosomes, whilst a diploid cell contains 23 x 2 chromosomes. When an egg cell (haploid) and a sperm cell (haploid) merge, a diploid cell is formed. Added: Called a zygote.
No - mitosis results in two genetically identical diploid cells.Meiosis creates four haploid cells.
its haploid= 4 cellsBy the end of meiosis all four resulting daughter cells are haploid.
Mitosis occurs in diploid parent cells, meaning they contain two sets of chromosomes (one from each parent). During mitosis, the parent cell divides to produce two genetically identical daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
When somatic cells reproduce by mitosis, the daughter cells are diploid. This means they have two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent, and the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
meiosisMeiosis produce haploid cells. Mitosis produce diploid cells
It depends on the process. Daughter cells created by mitosis are identical to the original cell (diploid), whereas daughter cells from meiosis are haploid.
