Due to the surface of the water, light insects are able to walk on the surface of water.

Surface tension also accounts for those with wide feet (generally webbed feet). They have more area on the underside of their feet and if they move fast enough (depending on their weight - the heavier they weigh, the faster they must go to keep on the surface of the water), they are able to "walk on water".

Alisiya [41]
The pressure would increase. This can be explained by the ideal gas law where for an ideal gas its pressure, volume and temperature is a function of each other ans is expressed by an equation: PV = nRT. We first need to assume that this gas given is ideal. When the temperature and the number of moles is set to a constant value while the volume decreases, we can see that from the equation pressure and volume are indirectly proportional to each other, therefore as the volume decreases, the pressure inside increases.
