Explanation:

The Earth ocean affect climate and weather by keeping it warm. The ocean act as heat retaining panel and it help distribute heat around the world. Ocean currents is the continuous movement of ocean water which is created by wind and also by temperature, Earth's rotation and tides. The west coast of USA is warmer that the east of USA because temperature of the west coast are warmer.

it provides an alternative energy pathway for the reaction to proceed.

a catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction but is not consumed during the course of the reaction.

catalysts increase the rate of reaction without being used up. they do this by lowering the activation energy needed. with a catalyst, more collisions result in a reaction, so the rate of reaction increases. different reactions need different catalysts.

a catalyst works by providing an alternative reaction pathway to the reaction product. the rate of the reaction is increased as this alternative route has a lower activation energy than the reaction route not mediated by the catalyst.
