Your friend asked the same question last week. See here for the answer.

From the Photoshop Help file.......
"Used to lighten or darken areas of the image, the Dodge tool and the Burn tools are based on a traditional photographer's technique for regulating exposure on specific areas of a print. Photographers hold back light to lighten an area on the print (dodging) or increase the exposure to darken areas on a print (burning)."
