Answer:

A) The catalyst makes lower energy pathways available.

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance which speeds up a chemical reaction without itself being used in the reaction. Activation energy is the thresh hold energy which is required to initiate a chemical reaction. In the absence of catalyst, the activation energy is high therefore reactions are slower. But, presence of catalyst lowers the activation energy required to initiate the reaction as a result of which the reaction gets an alternate energy pathway to proceed which is responsible for speeding up the reaction.
