A student observes a slide of onion root tip cells under a microscope and notices many cells in interphase. What does this suggest about the activity of cells in this region?

• The cells spend most of their time growing and replicating DNA

• Most of the cells are undergoing mitosis
  

• The cells are mostly inactive and preparing to die
  

• The root tip cells are not dividing at all
