उत्तर
The pancreas is both the exocrine and endocrine glands. It is located just below the stomach as a leaf-like structure. It secretes digestive enzymes and hormones like insulin and glucogon.
The digestive enzymes digest carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Insulin and glucose regulate blood sugar levels. If the pancreas is removed from the body, digestion and maintenance of blood sugar level get affected.
