Wat's pancreas function on human body?

Answer 1

The pancreas can also be thought of as having different functional components, the endocrine and exocrine parts.

Islets of Langerhans- These are the endocrine (endo= within) cells of the pancreas that produce and secrete hormones into the bloodstream. The pancreatic hormones, insulin and glucagon, work together to maintain the proper level of sugar in the blood. The sugar, glucose, is used by the body for energy.

Acinar cells- These are the exocrine (exo= outward) cells of the pancreas that produce and transport chemicals that will exit the body through the digestive system. The chemicals that the exocrine cells produce are called enzymes. They are secreted in the duodenum where they assist in the digestion of food.
