A diploid cell contains two sets of chromosomes, one set from each parent, while a haploid cell contains only one set of chromosomes. Diploid cells are generally found in organisms that reproduce sexually, while haploid cells are found in organisms that reproduce asexually. Diploid cells are involved in meiosis, which is a type of cell division that produces four haploid gametes or cells, while haploid cells usually create other haploid cells during mitosis.
