In humans, 46 chromosomes in all cells. (23 homologous pairs)

Yes. All healthy cells, except for reproductive cells, need 46 chromosomes to function properly.
if a cell has 64 chromosomes together, all the offspring cells will have 64 chromosomes each.
Reproductive cells have half the number of chromosomes as body cells, so if a body cell has 22 chromosomes, then the reproductive cells (sperm or egg) would have 11 chromosomes. This is because during sexual reproduction, the sperm and egg combine to form a new cell with the full number of chromosomes.
46.In humans, the only cells that divide by mitosis are ones with two sets of chromosomes, called diploid cells. They have 46 chromosomes, and the daughter-cells have 46 as well, because mitosis preserves the chromosome number.
Skin cells divide via mitosis - therefore the new cells will have the same number of chromosomes as the original cell. Therefore in humans, the new skin cells will have 46 chromosomes.

I believe it is Meiosis that produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original parent cells.
There are 26 chromosomes in the somatic cells of the Leopard Frog.
Yes. All healthy cells, except for reproductive cells, need 46 chromosomes to function properly.

there is no reduction of chromosome number.

The gametes must have half as many chromosomes as normal body cells because they unite to form a zygote, which is the first body cell of the new organism. For example, human body cells have 46 chromosomes and human gametes (sperm and egg cells) have 23 chromosomes. When the sperm fertilizes the egg, the zygote will have 46 chromosomes, and is the first body cell of the new human.
