Catalyst is a substance that can be added to a chemical reaction to increase the rate of reaction without getting itself consumed in the reaction. It just acts as a driving force for the reaction and it itself does not take part in the chemical reaction.
Catalysts basically speeds up a reaction by reducing the activation energy or also by changing the reaction mechanism. Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts in the biological systems.
