From About Time Machine in Mac Help:
Time Machine backs up and preserves everything on your computer. After
you set it up, Time Machine backs up your computer every hour without
any more effort on your part.

Initially, Time Machine makes a complete backup, including system files,
applications, accounts, preferences, music, photos, do***ents -
everything you keep on your computer.
