By default, a bass is tuned to E-A-D-G from low to high; but there are other factors that can alter this such as the bass having more strings(typically a 5-String would have a low B before the E, and a six would have the B as well as a high C above the G) but they can be tuned to any number of tunings the same way a guitar(or any stringed instrument for that matter) can to suit the rest of the song / composition or to make something easier to play.

What register do the treble clef and bass clef lay on an electric bass?

Typically, clef's denote staffed music, not notes on an instrument.... However if you want to be technical about it "middle C" which is the space above the middle line in the treble cleft would be found on the 17th fret of your bass. This is because the bass instrument plays the bass clef, but it is an octave below the bass clef that cellos read, and clefs were designed for orchestral instruments. If you wanted to decide where the clefs lay, a good rule is from the low C on your a-string to it's octave is bass cleff, and anything above the 5th fret on your g-string is treble clef

What instrument can you play with the bass clef?

You can play any instrument with the bass clef. This is just a convention to write notes of certain height in the bass clef. You can play a piece on an instrument if their diapasons match. Or even it is not so, you can transpose a piece to the diapason for your instrument. Usually, pieces written for bass instruments (for example, electric bass guitar or double bass) are noted on the bass clef.
