What do we call the part of

the microscope where we

put the slide?

A. the light

B. the eyepiece

C. the stage

D. the base

Answer: C. The Stage

When you look in the eyepiece you see the stage. If you want to inspect the slide, put it on the stage!

Stage clips hold the slides in place. If your microscope has a mechanical stage, you will be able to move the slide around by turning two knobs ... Removing Nosepiece or Turret: This is the part of the microscope that holds two or more objective lenses and can be rotated to easily change power (magnification).
