**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Types of Cell Division**: There are two primary types of cell division: mitosis and meiosis. 2. **Understand Mitosis**: Mitosis is known as equational division. This means that the chromosome number in the daughter cells remains the same as that in the parent cell. For example, if the parent cell has a diploid number of chromosomes (2n), the daughter cells will also have the same diploid number (2n). 3. **Understand Meiosis**: In contrast, meiosis is known as reductional division. During meiosis, the chromosome number is halved. If the parent cell is diploid (2n), the resulting daughter cells will be haploid (n), which means they will have half the number of chromosomes compared to the parent cell. ...
