Mitosis is nuclear division plus cytokinesis, and produces two identical daughter cells during prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. if there is no cytokinesis there will be no two identical cell produce

I don't know of a such thing. If they check out at the M phase checkpoint the cell is able to follow through with all the mitosis phases. But I imagine if it did not undergo cytokinesis the cell would undergo aptotosis (programmed cell death).

Fun fun fun! One of my favorite strange things. Karyokinesis without cytokinesis is the name of this process (sometimes you will see it called acytokinetic mitosis)
All it results in... is multinucleated cells.
Despite the insistence of the other answers, this happens frequently, and, is actually quite normal, and used for the development and regeneration of certain tissues.
Hepatocytes (liver cells) and muscle cells are particularly prone to doing this. Another word for this type of phenomenon is "syncytium", though that can also describe a situation where cells fuse such as from Sendai virus or in activated macrophages (though macrophages can also replicate DNA and have multiple nuclei without dividing). It is not uncommon to see liver cells with up to 4 nuclei, 8 is pretty rare. I personally have seen macrophages with 12 nuclei.

It would result in a bad cell... for example, if a human body cell (46 chromosomes) was dividing but cytokinesis did not occur, then the resulting cell would have 92 chromosomes... This would be a MAJOR problem, which could lead to un-natural cell growth.

IF the cell replicates everything but doesn't divide it will result in the cell bursting. However, our body prevents this from happening. The other cells around it will receive a signal that indicates something is wrong with the adjacent cell and those cells will initiate cell death for the cell which isn't dividing properly.

A cell with 2 nuclei. Depending on the robustness of the cell, it may live for a long time or may eventually die. Or, hey, it may lead to a whole new mutated species.

Ouch. Cell death.
1. DNA is duplicated
2. Cells will have twice the normal amount of chromosomes
3. Cells will have too much DNA
4. Cells will make too many proteins
5. Cells die
