Answer to Question 1

Cushing's

Answer to Question 2

C&S is a diagnostic test that determines which bacterium is causing an intestinal infection and to which antibiotic drugs it is sensitive. The patient's feces are swabbed onto a culture dish that contains a nutrient medium for growing bacteria. After the bacterium grows, it can be identified by the appearance of the colonies. Disks containing various antibiotic drugs are placed in the culture dish to determine which antibiotic drugs inhibit the growth of the bacteria.
