How does Android launch an app?

An Android process is started whenever it is required. Any time a user or some other system component requests a component (could be a service, an activity or an intent receiver) that belongs to your application be executed, the Android system spins off a new process for your app if it's not already running.

What code is executed when an application launched?

So although the call stack of an Android application start at ZygoteInit. main, the code executed in ZygoteInit.

There is a nice explanation in this presentation. It's written partially in Korean, but the most part of information in English.
