The pancreas is a glandular organ that lies in the abdominal cavity. It comprises of three parts namely, the head, body and tail. The main function of the gland is to assist the digestive process. The cells (exocrine cells) of the gland secrete certain digestive juices that break down complex food particles into smaller particles by the human body. In addition, the endocrine cells of the pancreas secrete certain hormones such as insulin and glucagon.
