About the events

The first two events are fairly straight forward. When a customer clicks the "add to cart" button, the event will fire that products basic details to Google Analytics. If the customer click to remove the item from the cart, the "remove_from_cart" event will fire with the basic product details.

The View item event will fire when someone views the product details page. This shows that they are, more than likely, interested in this particular product. This is a good metric to follow as it will show you what products people are viewing but maybe not purchasing.
