Weightlifting is mostly for strength and toning whereas cardio encompasses running, walking, swimming, so on.

There's no preference as to the order in which you should do them. Here's a nice article on that issue: http://munfitnessblog.com/cardio-before-or-after-weight-training/

I wouldn't say that there's a best exercise for strength training, because it depends on the muscles you want to work. For a full body workout, most gyms have all the requisite machines and trainers to point you in the right direction.

I would recommend situps and pushups in the morning and before you go to sleep. And if you can find a pullup bar, do that as well. Here's an article on how to do a proper pushup: http://www.ehow.com/how_3190_proper-push-up.html
