The pancreas is a six-inch-long gland located in your abdomen near your liver and part of the small intestine. It’s nestled right behind and slightly below your stomach and in front of your spine. The head of the pancreas is along the curve of your duodenum, the first part of the small intestine just beyond the stomach.

The pancreas plays a dual role in your bodily functions:

Endocrine system. The pancreas secretes hormones, including the blood sugar-regulating hormones: insulin and glucagon.
Exocrine system. The pancreas also secretes enzymes into your digestive tract through a duct into your duodenum.

IrinaK [193]

The correct answer is option D, that is, genetic diversity among the species.  

The sum of genetic characteristics in the genetic makeup of a species is known as genetic diversity. It is differentiated from genetic variability that illustrates the capability of genetic features to change.  

The genetic diversity functions as a medium for the populations to amend with the fluctuating environments. With more changes, there is more possibility that some individuals in a population will exhibit different forms of alleles, which are appropriate for the surrounding.  

These individuals hold high possibilities of survival in order to generate offspring exhibiting that allele. The population will continue for more generations due to the accomplishment of these individuals.
