PLEASE HELPPPPPP

A little girl lightly presses down on an air-filled balloon. This causes the pressure from the air inside the balloon to increase. According to Pascal's principle, how will this increase in air pressure occur?

1) The applied pressure will increase the air pressure in the center of the balloon.
2) The applied pressure will increase the air pressure equally throughout the balloon.
3) The applied pressure will increase the air pressure where the little girl's hand is.
4) The applied pressure will increase the air pressure on the side of the balloon that is opposite of the little girl's hand.
