The water has oxygen dissolved in it. On the other hand, the air has oxygen gas present freely. Beside this, the concentration of oxygen is more in the atmosphere than water. Hence, the aquatic organisms have to breathe quite fast to get the required oxygen. The terrestrial animals can easily get oxygen from the atmosphere.
