pancreas is an independent gland. The pancreas produces pancreatic juice which contains enzymes for digestion. But, the pancreas is connected to the small intestine through the pancreatic duct at the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine connected from the stomach).

What two major parts of the digestive system is the pancreas attached to?

the pancreas works with the small intestine and the liver. It works with the liver by sending the hormones that it makes to the liver. The pancreas makes insulin and glucagon. If the blood sugar is high, the pancreas sends out insulin. The liver reads this and it will store glucose(sugar). Glucagon tells the liver to release glucose when the blood sugar is high. The pancreas works with the small intestine because it makes digestive juices that are sent into the small intestine. The juices help break down food.
