Answer: c. Depending on context the same sequence of bits may represent different types of information.
Explanation:
The options for the question are:
A. Computing devices use patterns of bits to represent complex information
B. Abstraction helps represent complex information by surfacing complexity that might otherwise be hidden
C. Depending on context the same sequence of bits may represent different types of information
D. Common abstractions that are represented by computing devices include numbers, characters, and color.
The following are true of how computers represent complex information:
• Computing devices use patterns of bits to represent complex information
• helps represent complex information by surfacing complexity that might otherwise be hidden
• Common abstractions that are represented by computing devices include numbers, characters, and color.
Therefore, the option that is not true of how computers represent complex information is that "depending on context the same sequence of bits may represent different types of information".
