The following statements regarding to the pancreas and its function.

a. The pancreas is composed of two major types of tissues, (1) the acini, which secrete digestive juices into the duodenum, and (2) the islets of Langerhans, which secrete insulin and glucagon directly into the blood.

b. The islets contain three major types of cells, alpha, beta, and delta cells

c. The beta cells, constituting about 25 percent of all the cells of the islets, lie mainly in the middle of each islet and secrete insulin and amylin.

d. The alpha cells, about 60 percent of the total, secrete glucagon and the delta cells, about 10 percent of the total, secrete somatostatin.
