Arrange the sentences into the correct order.

Put the sentences in the correct order:

  1. Balancing this need for preservation against the public's desire to view such items remains an ongoing challenge for museum curators.
  2. To counter this, conservators now display light-sensitive items under carefully controlled, low-intensity lighting and rotate them out of public view after limited exhibition periods.
  3. Light causes pigments and fibers to break down at a molecular level, a process that gradually fades colors and weakens material structure.
  4. One of the most persistent threats to such objects, particularly textiles and works on paper, is prolonged exposure to light.
  5. Objects held in museum collections are constantly at risk of deterioration, even when they are no longer subject to everyday use.
