Answer:

A-exocrine cells that produce digestive fluid.

Explanation:

The pancreas is composed of both exocrine cells (capable of producing digestive enzymes) and endocrine cells (involved in the production of hormones that control glucose homeostasis). The islets of Langerhans are clusters or 'islands' of pancreatic endocrine cells, which consist of α-cells that produce glucagon, β-cells that secrete insulin and δ-cells that produce somatostatin. These islets are surrounded by: 1-exocrine cells called 'acini' that produce digestive enzymes such as chymotrypsin, trypsinogen, lipase, and elastase; and 2-bile ductules, which are tubes that carry bile from the liver and the gallbladder through the pancreas.
