    A catalyst is very similar to track spikes. Spikes increase a runner’s speed, as a catalyst speeds up the chemical reaction time in a plant. Neither the catalyst nor shoes are changed in these actions. Enzymes are macromolecules that act like catalysts. A catalyst will lower the activation energy within a seed, which will allow the reaction to go quicker.…
