Because it makes the onion root tip very thin - to get best results they tend to try and make it one cell layer thick. This way when you look at under a microscope with dye on it, we can see it clearer and more accurately. You can then distinguish between anaphase, interphase and so on.

A microscope is the best tool for a student to use to observe mitosis in an onion root tip.
Cut 2--3 cm long freshly grown roots and transfer them to freshly prepared fixative, i.e., aceto-alcohol (1:3:: glacial acetic acid : ethanol). Keep the root tips in the fixative for 24 hours and then transfer them to 70% ethanol (for preservation and use in future). Onion root-tip cells have a cell cycle of approximately 24-hour duration, i.e., they divide once in 24 hours, and this division usually takes place about two hours after sunrise. Therefore, roots grown on water should be cut only at that time to score maximum number of dividing cells.
Onion is a common vegetable, and can be served cooked or raw. For medicinal purposes, onion is available for internal use as a capsule or tablet containing dehydrated onion or onion extract.
Onions are the root bulbs of onion plants. The plant itself contains chloroplasts, which cause the green colour, whereas the onion bulb itself contains other pigments and few, if any, chloroplasts.
just shut the 4ck up use your brain you thick sht

focous into the lense and look towards the stage
Acetocarmine is a DNA specific stain like feulgen stain, so the super coiled chromosomes during different stages of mitosis present in the Onion root tip cells can be visualized perfectly by treating with this stain.
take the root tip (about 1 cm )and put it in dil. HCL solution for ten min. take the tip out and put in acetocarmine stain for 1min. take out the root put it in water bto remove extra stain .
Baby shampoo. And you can use conditioner and slowly comb your hair from tip to root
There is a certain chemical you can use, but a dark colored food coloring works.
After using the shampoo, apply it to your hair. (root to tip). Wait around 5 minutes and then rinse it with water. (use it once a week)
Because an onion develops in the ground, and chloroplasts develop in the sunlight. Therefore no chloroplasts form. Think of it this way: Tree leaves contain chloroplasts because they contain chlorophyll in order for the leaves to turn colors. But who has ever heard of an onion changing colors because it's fall?! Onions dont needchloroplasts, so they dont have them.

Unlike many other vegetables, onions can be used to regrow new onions by planting either a whole onion bulb or part of the onion that contains the root mass on the bottom. Once planted and hydrated, the roots on the bottom of the onion will begin to grow, and green onions will form out of the top of the vegetable. Onions can be used to grow new onions either using water - which is called hydroponic growing - or traditionally, using soil.
chop it then use it!
NO, but you could use the onion skin when making your natural beef stock, which would then be used making the onion soup. Use Vidalia onions and green peppercorns in your recipe .
