The inactive enzymes present in pancreatic juice include trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen and procarboxypeptidase. These enzymes are synthesized and released by the pancreas in their inactive forms to prevent premature activation and digestion of pancreatic tissue. Once in the small intestine, these inactive enzymes are activated by specific enzymes, such as enterokinase, to their active forms (trypsin, chymotrypsin, and carboxypeptidase),they play a crucial role in the digestion of proteins. Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
