Solution

The answer is: phase contrast microscope.

Explanation:

A phase contrast microscope is specifically designed to enhance the contrast of transparent and colorless specimens, such as live cells, without the need for staining. This is achieved by converting phase shifts in light passing through the specimen into changes in amplitude, which can be observed as variations in brightness against a grey background. This makes it ideal for observing cellular structures in live organisms.
