Answer
Both balloons will bulge, and they will bulge equally.

Explanation

  • Water exerts pressure on the walls of the bottle in all directions.
  • This pressure pushes water into both balloons, so both bulge.
  • The two balloons are at the same height, so the water pressure on them is the same.
  • Equal pressure gives equal bulges.
Equal height means equal water pressure, so both balloons bulge equally.
