Solution
The correct option is D Anaphylactic shock
Anaphylaxis or anaphylactic shock is a serious allergic reaction that is rapid in onset and may cause death. It causes an itchy rash, throat or tongue swelling, shortness of breath, vomiting, lightheadedness, and low blood pressure. These symptoms are seen within minutes to hours. Common causes include insect bites and stings, foods, and medications. The primary treatment of anaphylaxis is epinephrine injection into a muscle, intravenous fluids, and positioning the person flat.
A person stung with the bee is administered penicillin. The person died because insect stings and medication (penicillin) are the major causes of anaphylactic shock and death.
