Essentially, it tricks the plant into thinking it is dying or being destroyed. The plant then protects itself by generating roots. Of course, this is the most simplified explanation. Think of it as a sort of chemical chain reaction within the plant for self-preservation. This is probably the easiest way to explain it without getting too technical.

A plant cutting reacts to a rooting hormone by stimulating root growth at the cut end. The rooting hormone encourages the development of roots faster and more effectively than without it, increasing the cutting's chances of successfully taking root and growing into a new plant.

How do cells in the ovary detect a hormone from the brain?

Hormones are produced and then circulate through the body systemically. The target organ (in this case the Ovary) has receptors that react to the influence of the hormone through direct interaction of the hormone and the receptor. FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) CG (chorionic gonadotrophin) and LH (Leutinizing Hormone) along with progesterone, prostiglandin and estrogen are hormones that create feedback between the pituitary gland (brain) and the ovaries creating the reproductive cycle.
