Are tornadoes and storms the same thing?
Not really. A tornado is a specific type of storm. So a tornado is a storm, but most storms are not tornadoes. A tornado is a violently rotating column of air extending from the base of a thunderstorm to the ground often made visible by a funnel cloud.
Is a tornado a cloud?
No. A tornado is a violently rotating column of air extending from the base of a thunderstorm to the ground. A tornado is often, but not always made visible by a funnel cloud. But the tornado is not the cloud itself.
Is a storm cloud multiple clouds or just one cloud?
It can be either. Most often a thunderstorm is made up of of multiple clouds, but sometimes a storm can consist of a signle isolated cumulonimbus.

What is a tornado and what makes it occur?
A tornado is a violently rotating column of air extending from the base of a thunderstorm to the ground, often made visible by a funnel or cone shaped cloud. A tornado occurs when rolling air called wind shear is turned vertical by a thunderstorm. This creates a supercell, a storm with a strong, rotating updraft called a mesocyclone. Under the right conditions a downdraft can wrap around the mesocyclone, forcing the rotating into a tighter, more intense vortex: a tornado.
Are hurricanes made by nature or humans?
Hurricanes are made by nature. When a large storm with tall clouds starts giving off a tremendous amount of heat, the coriolis effect caused by the earth's spin makes the storm start rotating.
Is a tornado a type of cloud that forms circles around twists rotates and or circulates?
To a degree. A tornado is often made visible by a cloud known as a condensation funnel or funnel cloud. The tornado itself is not a cloud, however, but a violent rotating windstorm. The condensation funnel is sometimes absent in a tornado.
