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).
Small intestine
the bile duct
pancreas The liver, gallbladder and pancreas all send chemicals to your small intestine.
The digestive juices from the pancreas enter the duodenum, which is the first part of the small intestine.

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.

The bicarbonate found in the small intestine comes from the pancreas. The pancreas releases bicarbonate ions into the small intestine to help neutralize the acidic chyme that comes from the stomach. This bicarbonate helps create a more optimal pH environment for the enzymes in the small intestine to function properly in the digestion process.
