Answer:

Swelling, pain, nausea, and allergic reactions are commonly seen after a bee sting.

Explanation:

(a) What could be the reason for this burning pain?

  • Formic acid is one of many molecules in the bee sting that irritates the skin and induces edema and creates searing pain and stinging feeling. The histamine found in bee stings causes inflammation and an allergic reaction.

(b) Why did his mother apply baking soda solution to the affected area?

  • The application of the baking powder helps to neutralize the acid and reduce the pain.

(c) What values are shown by Nitesh’s friends?

  • Nitesh's friends demonstrated a strong sense of responsibility, friendliness, and concern.
