The viola uses the Alto clef. This clef is sometimes called the C clef.
The swirl in the bottom half of the clef cirlces around the G line of the clef. It also looks a bit like a G.
Treble
Tenor clef does of course exist, and can be used by bassoon.
Sometimes a clef has the number 8 below it, which indicates that the notes are to be played one octave lower than written. It can be used with treble clef for people who are unfamiliar with bass clef, or in bass clef to avoid excess ledger lines.

Double Bassists generally use bass clef. However, they do also use tenor clef and sometimes treble for notes of higher pitches.
The piano uses both the Treble clef (for higher pitches) and the Bass clef (for lower pitches). It plays in the key of C. Sometimes it is misinterpreted that the Treble clef is for the rigth hand and the Bass clef if for the left hand. This isn't true. Both hands can use the Treble clef or Bass clef, or even the right hand can use the Bass clef and the left hand can use the Treble clef.
When reading music for a drumkit - yes, there are no key signatures. The clef is a percussion clef. It looks like two vertical and parallel lines that go from the 'A' to the 'C' if you were reading treble clef.
The 'G' clef is the treble clef, it is called that because the 'spiral' of the treble clef lies on the G line (second line from bottom). The bass clef is called the 'F' clef because it looks kind of like this ): and the line between those two dots in the middle (second line from top), is the 'F' line.
well on piano, there are two lots of staves. (the lines which the notes go on). The left hand plays the lower notes which is the Bass clef. The right hand plays the higher notes which is the Treble clef.I hope that helps Treble clef: The G-clef is placed on the second line of the staff, positioning G above middle C. (The curl of the clef encircles the line.) Bass clef: The F-clef is placed on the fourth line of the staff, positioning F below middle C. (The line is between the two dots of the clef.)
The other designation for the bass clef is the 'F' clef.
