Insulin is produced by the Beta cells of the pancreas
Glucagon is produced by alpha cells of the pancreas
Delta cells produce somatostatin in the pancreas
The pancreas produces pancreatic juice to help digestion
The pancreatic juice contains digestive enzymes produced by the pancreas
So the answer is 'all of the above'

all of the above is the correct answer
"The pancreas is a gland organ in the digestive and endocrine system of vertebrates. It is both an endocrine gland producing several important hormones, including insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin, as well as an exocrine gland, secreting pancreatic juice containing digestive enzymes that pass to the small intestine. These enzymes help to further break down the carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in the chyme."
