A gated channel is an example of facilitated diffusion. A gated channel protein is a transport protein that opens a "gate" allowing a molecule to pass through the membrane (usually molecules too big to enter the cell by passing through the membrane itself).<span> </span>Gated channels <span>have a binding site that is specific for a given molecule or ion. (meaning only certain molecules or ions can enter the channel).</span>
Anticodons are found on molecules of tRNA. Their function is to base pair with the codon on a strand of mRNA during translation. This action ensures that the correct amino acid will be added to the growing polypeptide chain. A tRNA molecule will enter the ribosome bound to an amino acid.

Answer:
DNA ligase
Explanation:
<em>The biochemist must have left out DNA ligase enzyme.</em>
<u>The DNA ligase enzyme is able to catalyze the formation of phosphodiester bonds and as such, capable of joining strands of DNA together to form a single strand.</u>
The numerous DNA segments of a few nucleotides long observed by the biochemist must have been the replicated product of the lagging DNA strand. The lagging strand is replicated discontinuously in short strands because the DNA polymerase enzyme can only elongate primers in 5' to 3' direction. The short segments are known as Okazaki segments and are usually joined together to form a whole strand by the DNA ligase enzyme.
Hence, the missing component is the DNA ligase.
The Ecosystem will be out of balance.
