I suppose this is really a sort of trick question (one of my own magnificent design) for I don't believe that any of these can exist without the others. Creativity obviously cannot exist without imagination or knowledge, for as we determined in class creativity is a product of the two.
In regards to imagination, imagination can only happen by gaining experience, which is essentially knowledge, or more so we gain knowledge from experience, and knowledge can range from seeing the sky is blue to quantum mechanics.
And finally, with knowledge, in order for one to fully grasp a concept of anytime, one needs to be able to imagine it. For example: if someone tells you that a dog says "woof", do you not imagine a dog barking? Of course you do, for it is only natural for humans to voluntarily and involuntarily imagine certain things, for it is part of how our brain works.
With this information presented, it seems that there is no one concept that stands above the others. While creativity may be a product of the two, that does not make it any less important that the others, for creativity is what sets us apart from other animals.
