Answer: Stage M (Mitosis).

Explanation: The root tip is a meristem and this means that the root tip is responsible for the root growth. To do that, root tip cells divides actively to form root tissues, so that if we look an onion root tip under the microscope, the majority of cells will be in division, called mitosis, or Stage M of the cell cycle.
