Pancreas is a mixed gland. It lies beneath the stomach and is surrounded on one side by the curva of the duodenum. A tiny duct called pancreatic duct runs from yhe pancreas to the small intestine and serves as the passage way forthe pancreatic juice.
Pancreatic juice contins enzymes which acts on proteins, carbohydrates and fats.
Enzymes of pancreatic juice are :
(a) Pancreatic amylase which acts on starch and glycogen (polysaccharides).
(b) Trypsin chymotrypsin and carboxy- peptidases, which act on proteins and lipase which acts on triglycerides and converts it into fatty acids and glycerol.
If pancreas is removed from the body, the digestion of all these would not occur.
