Best answer
Right answer is (c) Pancreatitis

The explanation is: Pancreatitis is a result of inappropriate activation of trypsinogen in pancreas. Creatine kinase activity increase is seen during muscular dystrophy and other muscle diseases. Creatine kinase is used as a diagnostic clue in myocardial infarction as it’s the first enzyme to be elevated.
