Yes. Tornadoes are cause by severe thunderstorms, most of which fall into a category called supercells.
Yes essentially. A severe thunderstorm watch means severe thunderstorms are possible. A tornado watch means tornadoes are possible. Severe thunderstorms can cause damage, but not nearly as much as tornadoes potentially can.
Generally speaking, yes. A tornado watch means that tornadoes are possible. A severe thunderstorm watch means that severe thunderstorms are possible. Although severe thunderstorms can cause damage they are not nearly as destructive as tornadoes can be.
No. A severe thunderstorm watch means that severe thunderstorms are likely to occur within a region. This means there is a chance for damaging wind gusts, hail, and perhaps even tornadoes are possible. Severe thunderstorms can also cause floods.
Yes. Tornadoes are a form of weather that develop during severe thunderstorms.
Hurricanes bring strong winds and heavy rains, which can cause flooding. Hurricanes can bring thunderstorms which may become severe and sometimes produce tornadoes.
Yes. Thunderstorms are more common along cold fronts, but they can occur with warm fronts as well.
Weather is full of oddballs such as this. The severe weather from the July 27 event, was the result with a low pressure and its associated cold front. Similar systems are a common cause of ordinary summer thunderstorms. However, in this case the air mass the system brought was unseasonably cold, bringing about autumn-like conditions. Such large temperature contrasts between clashing air masses are rather conducive to severe thunderstorms, and autumn can sometimes become a second severe weather season.
Tornadoes are a product of severe thunderstorms and are fairly common in the outer rain bands of hurricanes.

No. The movement of Earth's plates can cause earthquakes and tsunamis but is completely unrelated tornadoes. Tornadoes are produced by severe thunderstorms.
