How RecyclerView concept works on android?

I have created a basic app using RecyclerView and CardView from get tutorials from websites.

App is working fine and I have some confusion.(I am showing my whole code here)

confusion is that how code works step by step. So please clear my concept on it.

Basic Structure of my App :

1. I have created a row_data_layout xml file to bind on recycler_view.
2. Created an Data class file (Here I have defined my variable that I used in App).
3. Created an Adapter file (here I want to clear how it works step by step first which class gets called and why?).
4. Bind Data to RecyclerView on MainActivity file.

row_data_layout.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/CardView"
    android:paddingBottom="16dp"
    android:layout_marginBottom="16dp">

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical">

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/txt_name"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
            android:text="Large Text"
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
    </LinearLayout>

</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

Data Class File:

public class Data {
    public String Name;

    Data(String Name)
    {
        this.Name=Name;
    }
}

Data_Adapter Class file:

public class Data_Adapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<Data_Adapter.View_holder> {
    List<Data> list = Collections.emptyList();
    Context context;

    public Data_Adapter(List<Data> list, Context context) {
        this.list = list;
        this.context = context;
    }

    @Override
    public Data_Adapter.View_holder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
        View v = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.row_data_layout,parent,false);
        View_holder holder=new View_holder(v);
        return holder;
    }

    @Override
    public void onBindViewHolder(Data_Adapter.View_holder holder, int position) {
            holder.name.setText(list.get(position).Name);
    }

    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {
        return list.size();
    }

    @Override
    public void onAttachedToRecyclerView(RecyclerView recyclerView) {
        super.onAttachedToRecyclerView(recyclerView);
    }

    public class View_holder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder{
        CardView cv;
        TextView name;

        public View_holder(View itemView) {
            super(itemView);
            cv = (CardView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.CardView);
            name = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.txt_name);
        }
    }
}

MainActivity File:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        List<Data> data = fill_data();
        RecyclerView recyclerView = (RecyclerView) findViewById(R.id.recyclerView);
        Data_Adapter adapter = new Data_Adapter(data,getApplicationContext());
        recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
        recyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this));
    }

    public List<Data> fill_data()
    {
        List<Data> data = new ArrayList<>();
        data.add(new Data("Bred Pit"));
        data.add(new Data("Leonardo"));

        return data;
    }
}
