Answer:

It is Isotonic to the fish egg solution

Step-by-step explanation:

It is Isotonic because Isotonic is a solution that has the same solute concentration with another solution I.e the amount of solute in one solution is the same with the other. This slow the free flow of solutes in equal part through the semipermeable membrane from one solution to the other.
