A present participle is formed with the stem of the workd and the suffix -ing and it can have many functions, such as adjective, a part of the verb phrase.
Here all the stentences have a present participle! Here they are:
It is exciting to see the raised head of a dolphin in the water!
exciting - it can be seen as a present participle or adjective
When dolphins are above the water, they are breathing air.
breathing - this is definitely a present participle
Having adapted to pressure changes,
dolphins’ lungs enable them to dive below the ocean’s surface.

Swimming
dolphins need to break the surface for air every two minutes.
here "smimming" is the participle.

<em>B.</em><em> The sea and its tides</em>
Explanation:
<em>Robinson Crusoe </em>is a novel written by Daniel Defoe. We follow the story of a man who was shipwrecked on a deserted island. He was trapped there for 28 years with no valid possibilities of sailing away.
Antagonist in a story is a person or a hostile force that stands as opposed to protagonist (the main character), it makes things hard for him and creates a rocky road to the protagonist`s goal, intentionally or unintentionally.
In this novel, the antagonist is the sea and its tides - it was them that caused the shipwreck and disenabled Robinson from getting out of the island and going home.
