A substance that speeds up a chemical reaction—without being a reactant—is called a catalyst. The catalysts for biochemical reactions that happen in living organisms are called enzymes. Enzymes are usually proteins, though some Ribo-Nucleic Acid (RNA) molecules do act like enzymes also.
Enzymes perform the critical task of lowering a reaction's activation energy—that is, the amount of energy that must be put in for the reaction to begin. Enzymes work by binding to reactant molecules and holding them in such a way that the chemical bond-breaking and bond-forming processes take place more readily.

An enzyme is just a catalyst that acts on the chemical reaction inside biological bodies.
For a reaction to happen, the substances are required to cross a certain energy barrier called "Energy of Activation".
Activation Energy is quite high and it is impossible for the substances to reach it by themselves almost all of the time.
An enzyme lowers the Activation Energy and makes the reaction happen easily.
