how are the cello and bass related?? i know that the viola is tuned and octave higher than the cello, so then, is the cello tuned an octave higher than the bass. i play some bass but would like to also learn the cello. are the strings the same?? fingering positions, and all??

No.
The cello is tuned in fifths not fourths. From the bottom, the srtrings are CGDA. And you use all your fingers.
