Plants: haploid generation of a plant produces gametes (sperm and eggs) and is called the gametophyte; the diploid generation produces spores and is called the sporophyte/ diploid zygote.
1 You gain the most benefits and lessen the risks when you exercise in your target heart rate zone. 2  Usually this is when your exercise heart rate (pulse) is 60 to 80 percent of your maximum heart rate. 3  In some cases, your health care provider may decrease your target heart rate zone to begin with 50 percent.
Your pulse is your heart rate, or the number of times your heart beats in one minute. 2 Pulse rates vary from person to person. Your pulse is lower when you are at rest and increases when you exercise (more oxygen-rich blood is needed by the body when you exercise). A normal adult resting heart beat is between 60-100 heartbeats per minute. 2  Some experienced athletes may see their resting heartrate fall below 60 beats per minute. 3  Tachycardia refers to the heart beating too fast at rest-over 100 beats per minute.
