Explanation:

To determine the path of light in a microscope, we follow the sequence of components light passes through:

Step 1: Identify the light source

The light starts at the light source (e.g., a lamp or mirror) to illuminate the specimen.

Step 2: Light travels to the stage

The stage holds the slide with the specimen. After the light source, light moves toward the stage (where the slide is placed).

Step 3: Light passes through the slide

The slide (containing the specimen) is on the stage, so light travels through the slide next.

Step 4: Light hits the objective lens

The objective lens is below the stage (or above, depending on the microscope) and focuses the light from the slide.

Step 5: Light reaches the ocular lens

Finally, light travels through the ocular lens (eyepiece) for magnification and viewing.

Answer:

1. light source
2. stage
3. slide
4. objective lens
5. ocular lens
