On a Baritone are bass clef notes lower than the treble clef?
yes. think of it as trumpet plays treble cleff. (high pitch instruments and sounds) trombone plays bass cleff (lower notes and sounds) The difference between the cleffs is 3 half steps (I believe) Typically bass cleff notes are lower but not always. It depends if the two are the same part. If you are asking about the treble clef baritone vs. bass clef baritone issue in bands, there's a catch: treble clef baritone players read notes written in the treble clef but the sound they make is actually a major 9th (octave + 1 whole step) lower. (E.g. if a treble-clef baritone player sees a middle C on the treble clef, the note that is actually played is a B-flat on the 2nd line from the bottom of the bass clef.) So actually, a bass-clef baritone part and a treble-clef baritone part from the same piece of music are probably identical in sound. They're just written differently. The reason: trumpet players, who usually play in a B-flat transposition (sounds a step lower, their written C comes out B-flat), can switch over to baritone more easily if they continue to read the same clef and finger the notes the same way. (Same thing is true of the saxophones, who all read basically the same range of the treble clef, finger more or less the same, but come out with sounds in very different registers.) It's pretty common, at least in U.S. schools, for baritone players to have started out as trumpet players, and this practice facilitates the switch. Most of the low brass world, though, uses untransposed bass clef--what you see is what you hear. Baritone players are well advised to learn bass clef as soon as possible. Still, they need to understand how the transposed treble-clef parts work--it's part of the environment.
How many clefs are there?
Contrary to what most people believe (3 clefs: Bass, Treble, Alto), there are actually 7 that I know of. Yes, some are Treble, Bass, and Alto. But, there are four more: Soprano, Mezzo Soprano, Baritone, and Tenor. I believe Tenors usually use Baritone Clef though.
What clef does the baritone use?
If by the baritone you mean the euphonium in the military and wind bands the part is non-transposing and written in the bass clef. In brass bands it is treated as a transposing instrument (Euphonium in B-flat) the part is written in the treble cleff sounding 1 octave + 1 tone lower than written. If you are refering to the tenor saxhorn or Baritone (B-flat Baritone) as it is called as used in brass bands then it is always a transposing instrument written in the treble clef sounding 1 octave + 1 tone lower than written. Then there is the baritone sax which is written in the treble clef (Baritone Sax in e-flat) which sounds 1 octave+ a sixth lower than written

Does Michael Jackson use bass clef or treble clef?
His vocals would certainly be using treble clef. Most singer's vocals remain in treble cleff range (with the exception of very deep baritone singers). The bass lines would be in bass clef because they are much lower notes (like the catchy part of Billie Jean, for just one example).

Does the bari sax play in the bass clef?
bass clef EDIT: The person who said bass cleft is only 50% right... Baritone Horn music is also written in Treble Clef and it is transposed to Bb. So for example.. if you played the trumpet, you cane easily switch to baritone horn and read music off of Treble Clef.. the fingerings would be the SAME, the note would ust be an octace lower. If the music were in Bass Clef, you'd have to transpose half a step high because Baritone Horns are in Concert key (C).
