Specifically, you can select and copy you text as usually with cmd-c and
to insert into Emacs ctrl-y. For the opposite : cmd-w and paste into any
other application as usual. If Cmd-y seems not to work, try Opt-w

If you are very new to Emacs,  i suggest you to type "Ctrl-h" then "t" :
it will launch the Emacs tutorial and should make you more familiar with
the keyboard strokes and general handling & behavior of Emacs.

BTW : in the tutorial the META  key is either the mac option or command,
it  depends on  the Emacs  configuration of  the mac-command-key-is-meta
variable.
