What is a vortex air rising into a cloud?
This is a tornado.
A vortex of air rising into a cloud?
tornado
What forms a vortex?
A vortex is form when the whirling motion of the cloud vortex results from a rapid downdraft of cold air replacing rising hot air.
What is a vortex of air riseing into a cloud?

What is a mass of spinning rising air that may produce a tornado?
I think the word you're looking for is "vortex".

What type of cloud does rising air form?
Rising convectively, a cumulus cloud is the most common.
What makes a funnel cloud?
A funnel cloud forms when the vortex of a developing tornado draws in moist air. As the air enters the vortex it undergoes a pressure drop, which in turn produce a temperature drop. This causes the moisture to condense and form a funnel cloud.

What causes a cumulus cloud?
Rising hot air and water condensing out of that air.
How does a funnel cloud touch ground?
The funnel cloud marks the location of a vortex where air spirals upward. This vortex formed from a larger vortex called mesocyclone, which was squeezed by a downdraft, causing it to tighten in diameter, intensify, and stretch vertically. This stretching causes it to extend downward.
In a cumulonimbus cloud, what keeps the rising air inside the cloud warmer and less dense than the air around it?
The heat from condensation makes the rising air warmer and stay less dense than the air around it.
What is a tornado forming in the air?
A tornadic vortex that is developing but has not yet reached the ground is called a funnel cloud.
