Tornadoes generally form over land, not the ocean. You are thinking of hurricanes. The term hurricane refers to a tropical cyclone that occurs over the Atlantic Ocean or the eastern Pacific ocean.
Any one of these can form over the ocean, but only a hurricane does so exclusively.
Hurricanes can only develop over warm ocean water. Tornadoes can form on water but usually form on land.
A tornado over a body of water is called a waterspout.
Tornadoes usually form over land rather than over bodies of water like oceans. However, if certain weather conditions are met, waterspouts can form over the ocean. Waterspouts are essentially tornadoes that form over water.
Not usually. Tornadoes generally form on land. Kansas is one of the most tornado prone area in the world and it is nowhere near the ocean.
A tornado can go up a mountain across rivers, and even go out into the the ocean or sea.
A tornado on water is called a waterspout.
A hurricane is an independent storm system while a tornado is dependent on a parent storm cell.A hurricane is typically several hundred miles wide while a tornado is usually no more than a few hundred yards wide.Hurricanes can only form over warm ocean water while tornadoes usually form over land.

Hurricanes cannot form on land; they can only form over warm ocean water. Tornadoes can form almost anywhere, but are most common in areas with a warm temperate to subtropical climate. The most tornado-prone area in the world is Tornado Alley, which covers much of the Great Plains in the central U.S.
Tornadoes can form over water when conditions are right, such as when warm, moist air near the surface interacts with cooler air above. These conditions can create the necessary rotation for a tornado to develop, even over the sea. These tornadoes are known as waterspouts.
