What is a slide in a microsift powerpoint?

Answer 1

A page is called as a SLIDE in microsoft Power Point.

In photography, a transparency is a still, positive image created on a transparent base using photochemical means. The terms slide and reversal film are also used. Contrast with negative and print.

The detailed explaination :
In Microsoft Office PowerPoint, as in most other presentation software, text, graphics, movies, and other objects are positioned on individual pages or "slides". The "slide" analogy is a reference to the slide projector, a device which has become somewhat obsolete due to the use of PowerPoint and other presentation software. Slides can be printed, or (more usually) displayed on-screen and navigated through at the command of the presenter. Slides can also form the basis of webcasts.
