It is the water column.
Vertical columns are called groups. Horizontal rows are called periods.
The horizontal rotation is caused by wind shear, differences in wind speed and direction with altitude. This can create horizontal vorticity in the air. This horizontal rotation then gets caught in the updrafts of thunderstorms in the area, which turn this rolling into vertical rotating columns within the storms. Eventually, the rotation in the storm can tighten and intensify to produce a tornado.

If you are referring to the formation of a mesocyclone, this occurs when the horizontal vorticity meets the updraft. The updraft helps lift the vorticity upwards and in the process tilts the axis from horizontal to vertical.
Obviously yes.

No. A row is horizontal and a column is vertical.
