Question 2 • FL-2000310-Biology 1 Sem 2
The pancreas has endocrine functions, including releasing insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar, and exocrine functions, including releasing digestive enzymes. Those enzymes help digest fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. The pancreas does not trigger the development of secondary sex characteristics; that is primarily controlled by sex hormones produced by the gonads.
