Any reaction that consumes energy, or has a positive delta(H), is called an endothermic reaction.
Every reaction requires energy. for example when you have power, it requires energy, so does mass movement as well :)
A catalyst lowers the activation energy without being consumed during a reaction
the energy content and entropy both decrease
Catalysts are never consumed in the reaction. that's what makes them catalyst! not a reactant. they increase the rate of reaction by lowering the activation energy for the reaction. One of the ways to do this by providing an alternative route for the reaction to follow.
A catalyst speeds up a reaction by lowering the activation energy of the reaction. It is not consumed by the reaction, but rather it leaves the reaction unchanged.

Yes, during the time it absorbs energy to break bonds.

duuh...of course it does
Burning is an exothermic reaction, but to get gas, or wood, or coal to burn you must start by using some energy to get the reaction started. After it starts it will produce enough energy to keep the reaction going and to release excess energy. This energy put in to start the process is called the activation energy.

The free energy (delta G) is the measure of the amount of energy produced or consumed in a reaction. Enthalpy (delta H) is a measure of the amount of heat produced or consumed in a reaction. These two quantities can sometimes be the same. When they are not, the other missing component where heat can be consumed or produced is work.

produced and consumed
Enzymes are biological catalysts. They speed up biochemical reaction. During the course of a reaction, the enzyme molecules do not get consumed. At the end of a reaction, the enzyme molecules are ready for another reaction. Enzymes are able to catalyze reactions by decreasing the free energy change (delta G) associated with a biochemical reaction. When the reactants have to go through a smaller free energy change, the products are formed faster.
The potential energy of the molecules change during a reaction.
