Harvesting Basil

This may sound stupid to the experienced gardeners out there, but when
you harvest basil leaves, should you pick off just the leaves, or should
I take the whole stem?  I have been picking the leaves only, and I think
the plant is trying to go to seed now.

I would also ask if anyone knows about cilantro too.  The bottom few
leaves were big and then there was all this little fern looking stuff on
the top.  Is this going to seed or is this part of its regular growth?

Thanks for any help you can offer.
