The correct statement after mitosis and cytokinesis is:
**D. 2 genetically identical daughter cells have been produced.**
Mitosis results in two daughter cells that are genetically identical to each other and to the original parent cell. Option A and C are incorrect because they refer to the production of four cells or genetically different cells, which is not typical of mitosis (that would occur in meiosis). Option B is also incorrect because it states four cells were produced.
**D. 2 genetically identical daughter cells have been produced.**
