When the tide is high and waves crash about‚ air is mixed with the water‚ thus increasing oxygen content. This is due to the fact that when waves crash about‚ the water will be more exposed to the air and cause an increase in the amount of oxygen present in the water. When the tide is low and periwinkles are exposed‚ there is no shortage of oxygen for the periwinkle snails either because the surrounding air is composed of around 21% oxygen‚ which is enough oxygen for a periwinkle snail. To survive
