Kinda, theres actually multiple chained together. All of them handing control over to software more complicated than the last. The end goal is to load and hand control over to a kernal on stored on a writable storage media. The one on the eeprom is the first one (the BIOS).
They still need to share an EFI partition
Not really if you have a bootloader like refind it will look for other EFIs and list them. Makes for a really clean set up
The bootloader resides in an eeprom on the motherboard or something?
