Which of the following does streptococci cause?

  1. Common cold

  2. Strep throat and blood poisoning

  3. Chickenpox

  4. Measles

The correct answer is: Strep throat and blood poisoning

Streptococci is a type of bacteria that can cause various infections in the body. While streptococci can cause both strep throat and blood poisoning (also known as sepsis), it is not typically associated with the common cold (Option A), chickenpox (Option C), or measles (Option D). Other types of bacteria or viruses are responsible for these illnesses. Therefore, B is the correct answer.
