An execution profile is a pre-defined set of configuration settings, which you can use to execute test suites. You can add multiple execution profiles with a different combinations of configuration settings.
Every web/mobile project comes with a default execution profile as System Execution Profile, in which execution mode is local which cannot be changed, and the browser is selected as Chrome which can be changed.
