The best clarinets are wooden. Wooden clarinets are black. The colored ones are probably plastic, and I doubt they sound very good.

Why are bass clarinets and saxophones different?
A bass clarinet is essentially a big clarinet, it just bends at the top and bottom so its in an easier position to play, a saxophone is a saxophone - they are two different instruments i.e. different materials, different mouthpieces, different fingering etc

The fingerings are the same for the notes from third line D through the B above the staff. Above and below that range the fingerings are different.
What are the names of the woodwind instruments in a orchestra?
There are flutes, piccolos, clarinets, oboes, bass clarinets, bassoons, and all saxophones. Most school bands only have alto and tenor saxophones, maybe a bari-sax, and rarely a soprano saxophone.
Why do clarinets and saxophones transpose?
Im not sure if you meant 'why' or how' do clarinets and saxophones transpose. For the sake of logic, I will assume "How do clarinets and Saxophones transpose" as the alternative does not make sense to me. Well, quite simply, from a clarinet to a Tenor or Soprano Saxophone, there is NO transposing needed as the Clarinet, Tenor Saxophone and Soprano Saxophone are all Bb (B Flat) instruments (which means that a C on the Clarinet will sound the same as a C on those 2 saxes). However, for the Alto and Baritone saxophones, you will need to transpose, as Alto and Baritone are Eb (E Flat) instruments. One thing to note is that a Clarinet has a Register Key, while a Saxophone has an Octave Key. The register key raises the pitch of a clarinet by a 12th (19 semitones) while the Octave key raises by an octave, or 8th (12 semitones). Just something to consider when making the transition :)
