If I am running Ubuntu or one of its offshoots "live" from a USB flash stick, does the stick get written to, or are there only read operations?

How about if persistence is disabled?

From the first line, it seems that the Live CD/USB is read only unless you add persistent file storage. That link should show you how to do so.
