The daughter cells will have equal number of chromosomes like that of parent cell i. e. 46.

Explanation:

Mitosis is a process of division that creates two new daughter cells with same genetic material and thus equal number of chromosomes. It involves: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase and at the end cytokine.

In prophase, the nuclear envelope of the cell breaks down along with chromosome condensation. In metaphase, the condensed chromosomes line up at equatorial plate. In anaphase, the sister chromatids of lined chromosomes are pulled towards the opposite poles. While in telophase the cell is ready for division, its nearly dividing stage in which the cell retains its normal structures.
