What do diplococci cause?

  1. Tuberculosis

  2. Pneumonia

  3. Common cold

  4. Stomach ulcers

The correct answer is: Pneumonia

Diplococci are a type of bacteria that are responsible for causing pneumonia. Pneumonia is a respiratory infection that affects the lungs, leading to symptoms such as cough, fever, and difficulty breathing. Tuberculosis, the common cold, and stomach ulcers are caused by different pathogens and are not typically associated with diplococci.
