It depends on the tornado. Most tornadoes are weak and don't last long. These tornadoes snap weak trees, break glass and damage roofs
The very worst of tornadoes can travel dozens of miles and level or even completely blow away well built structures.
Some of these tornadoes carve damage paths over a mile, or even two miles wide.
A tornado becomes a disaster when it meets populated areas, causing destruction to buildings, infrastructure, and loss of life. The intensity and path of the tornado can greatly impact the level of devastation it causes. Proper warning systems and preparedness measures can help minimize the impact of tornado disasters.

Tornadoes can tear up vegetation and destroy animal habitats. Swaths of wooded areas may be leveled.
No. The unequal heating will produce breezes, and perhaps clouds and rain, but much more is required to produce a tornado.
A hurricane affects a much wider area while a tornado can cause more severe damage in a small area.
Humans can not effect a tornado. Only nature can make a tornado occur. The cold and hot air curl together and form the tornado.
The main impact of a tornado on ecosystems is the destruction of trees and other vegetation. Animals caught in a tornado may be killed or injured as well.
Much of the economic impact would have been local rather than regional or national. The may be some national impact as a result of money and resources that went into aiding the recovery.
Tornadoes do not have any notable impact on climate.
Depends how large or small the Tornado is.
The most serious impact is usually the destruction of trees and animal habitats.
It is impossible to make long term predictions of whether or when a specific location will have a tornado. When we do determine that a town or city is going to be hit, the time to the tornado's impact is measured in minutes.

Yes. The Tuscaloosa tornado spent a significant amount of time moving through forested areas. Many thousands of trees were destroyed. Much widlife was certainly impacted, though there do not seem to be estimates of the degree of that impact.
The cost of damage from the Waco tornado was $41 million.
The Greensburg tornado cost about $250 million.
A tornado has an impact on both the environment and humans. Though the impact on humans is more noticeable. Environmental impacts include the destruction of vegetation and animal habitats as well as the deaths of some animals. Similarly tornadoes can damage or destroy human property and kill or injure humans.
