The common bile duct and the pancreatic duct join and enter the duodenum (first section of the small intestine) at the major duodenal papilla.

AnswerThe main function of the pancreas in digestion is to produce and release enzymes necessary to break down the nutrients that enter the duodenum. They are NaH2CO3 which neutralizes, Lipase which digests lipids, Amalayze which digests carbohydrates, Peptidase which digest proteins.
