A tornado is a violently rotating column of air extending from the base of a thunderstorm to the ground. Lightning is a massive discharge of static electricity that occurs during a thunderstorm.
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.

A supercell is a type of very powerful, rotating thunderstorm typically defined by a rotating updraft called a mesocyclone. They are the strongest thunderstorms on earth. The majority of tornadoes are produced by the mesocyclone of a supercell.
This is called a tornado.
