Answer:
Respiration for terrestrial organisms is easier.
Explanation:
Aquatic animals use oxygen dissolved in the water. As the temperature of water increases, the solubility of oxygen decreases. This results in difficulty in respiration. On the other hand, the respiration on land doesn't depend on the temperature on land as the oxygen's solubility in air isn't affected by the temperature or any other external factors.
