Answer: Option 2

In optics, a prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that refract light. In a rainbow, raindrops in the air act as tiny prisms. Light enters the raindrop, reflects off of the side of the drop and exits. In the process, it is broken into a spectrum just like it is in a triangular glass prism.
