iCloud and Photos app

I am trying to determine how to manage all our photos and I can't find this answer anywhere. If I turn on my iCloud photos on my iPhone and the Photos app on our Mac. If I understand correctly, I take a pic on my iPhone, it's uploaded to iCloud and then downloaded to my Mac. Where would I find that photo in the Photos app on the Mac? For instance, I take 5 random, unrelated photos on my phone. How are those photos categorized/what album do they go in when they make it to the Photos app or do they even go to the Photos app?

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.15

Just into your photos library in date order. Not into any specific album.
