When using a microscope, the prepared slide is placed on
A
the diaphragm
B
the stage
C
the objective
D
the ocular lens
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Place the slide on the Mechanical stage and fasten it with the stage clips. Look at the side of the microscope and turn the Adjustment knob until the lens is very close to, but not touching, the slide.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your microscope slide should be prepared by placing a coverslip or cover glass over the specimen. This will help protect the objective lenses if they touch the slide. Place the microscope slide on the stage and fasten it with the stage clips. You can push down on the back end of the stage clip to open it.

Detailed explanation-3: -Before putting a slide on the stage-turn on the illumination & set the light to a comfortable level. IT IS NOT NECESSARY to use the light at maximum-to do so can be very tiring to the eyes. Rotate the 4X objective into position.

Detailed explanation-4: -All microscopes are designed to include a stage where the specimen (usually mounted onto a glass slide) is placed for observation. Stages are often equipped with a mechanical device that holds the specimen slide in place and can smoothly translate the slide back and forth as well as from side to side.
