Answer: The answer is (3) Go to the lowest floor or an interior room of the home and cover yourself.


Step-by-step explanation: We are given three options and we are to decide which is the best action to take if we are at home and hear a tornado warning.

We all know what a tornado is. It is a column of air rotating violently that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground. Tornado can happen anytime, anywhere and they look like funnels.

To be safe at the time of tornado, if we are at home, we should to to the lowest level of the building, or basement and should stay away from windows, doors and outside walls.

Thus, the correct option is (3) Go to the lowest floor or an interior room of the home and cover yourself.
