Explanation:

In ceramics, the potter's wheel is a well - known tool used to spin clay while shaping it. A kiln is the standard equipment for firing (heating) clay. Option a: "Clay spinner" is not a standard term (it's a potter's wheel), and "roaster" is not used for firing clay in ceramics. Option c: A kiln is for firing, but it's not used for spinning clay; glaze is a coating, not a firing tool. Option d: "Meander" is a decorative pattern, not a tool for spinning clay; "slip oven" is not a standard term for firing clay (it's a kiln).

Answer:

B. (1) potters wheel; (2) kiln
