Solution

The correct option is B Root apex
In plants, mitosis takes place in meristem tissues that are principally found in roots. Hence root tip is a rapidly growing part of the plant and so in it, many cells will be in different stages of mitosis due to which mitosis can be studied well. Thus the correct answer is option B.
