All the information in a computer is zeros and ones?
For example, when a photo is opened on a computer, is it really the processor processing a long sequence of zeros and ones? Is it so?

Yes, one can draw an analogy that a person at a low level consists of atoms, neutrons, etc.
I will add:
this is actually the processor processing a long sequence of zeros and onesIf you look deeper, it does not process, but "simply" forwards from one place to another.
No not like this. There are no zeros and ones, of course. There are only electric and magnetic impulses, and electric charges.
Somehow I came across a book called, I remember, simply "Code". Well, or "The Code" ...
There, computer logic was sorted out, starting with a mechanical relay.
Putting brains in place and getting rid of all sorts of illusions.
Now, though, it's hard to google a book with that title ;)
In 1980, they say they made computers with ternary logic (0,1,2) and even analog ones - as an experiment. And all that are used now work on binary logic (0,1).
On computer science in the 5th grade pass. At the first lesson.
