The pancreas! This remarkable organ does two things, the first is that it makes pancreatic 'juice' to directly assist with the digestion process in the small intestine; the second is that is also makes insulin, which goes into the blood to regulate blood sugar levels.
It is released into the duodenum through an opening called the ampulla of vader. This is opened and closed by the sphicter of oddi, which is controlled by a hormone released by the gall bladder. The hormone is CCK, or cholecystokinen and is released when needed to digest food.
Pancreatic juices are secreted to the small intestine (duodenum).
The pancreatic juices which contain digestive enzymes are formed within the pancreas.

In the pancreas
Pancreatic juices are produced in the pancreas. They act on all the main food groups, breaking them down.
The sodium bicarbonate found in pancreatic juice is produced in the lungs. The pulmonary transfer tubules allow transfer of the substance to the pancreas, where it can be used to neutralize the pH of the stomach in protein digestion.
Um... The pancreas? It is both and exocrine and endocrine gland.
The pancreatic juice enters the small intestine through the pancreatic ducts
Pancreatic juice performs its functions in the duodenum. It gets there by traveling through the pancreatic duct then enters the duodenum through the hepatopancreatic ampulla (ampulla of Vater).
Duodenum has an opening for the dumping of bile and pancreatic juice called the hepatopancreatic sphincter
Its the pancreas that makes the pancreatic juice.
