Sharepoint 2010 foundation to Sharepoint 2013 foundation question

I am planning a migration of
Sharepoint 2010 Foundation on prem to Sharepoint 2013 Foundation on prem.

Every resource suggests I should do the content database attach method by setting DB to read only and reattach it to the SP2013 Database.

Would the new site collection on 2013 for instance , have the same structure/permissions/content?

What if I have multiple Databases, do I detach and reattach all of them at the same time or should I do a specific one first?

Right now my 2010 farm is a single-site collection with less than 100gb on the content database.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you

    This topic is outlined at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/upgrade-and-update/upgrade-databases-0.

    To answer your specific questions, all of the site configuration is held within the content databases so things will come over as-is. You should mount the database containing the root site collection first.
