Hepatopancreas is an organ found in some invertebrates, particularly arthropods and mollusks, that functions in digestion and nutrient absorption. It combines the roles of the liver and pancreas, producing digestive enzymes and storing nutrients. The hepatopancreas plays a crucial role in processing food and managing the organism's metabolic needs.
