Best answer
The correct answer is (c) streptokinase

The best I can explain: Streptokinase is used in myocardial infraction to dissolve blood clot. It causes fibrinolysis. Pepsin, cellulase, amylase elastase, trypsin peptidase and lipase are used in treatment of gastrointestinal tract disorder and chronic pancreatitis.
