For every composable pair ''f'' and ''g'' the composite f \circ g goes from the domain of ''g'' to the codomain of ''f''. For each object ''A'' the identity arrow 1_A goes from ''A'' to ''A''. Composing any arrow with an identity arrow (supposing that the two are composable) gives the original arrow. And composition is associative.
