請觀察空格前面的 with + 名詞,以及空格後面接的受詞(身體部位),如果要描述這些花朵對受詞所做的「主動動作」,空格處需要什麼樣詞性的動詞變化呢?

太棒了,選得非常精準!這題考查的是學測常考的**「with 複合受詞結構」**(with + 受詞 + 受詞補語)。
文法結構與語意搭配
句中的 with onions and onion flowers 是介係詞片語,後方需要一個分詞來補充說明洋蔥與花朵的狀態。因為洋蔥與花朵「主動點綴、裝飾」著木乃伊的各個身體部位,且後方緊接著受詞(pelvis, chest...),因此必須選擇現在分詞(V-ing)形式的 (F) decorating。若選過去分詞則語法與主被動不符。
