Answer 1

The best way for the student to test their hypothesis is to:

**Compare the growth rates of avocado trees exposed to varying amounts of sunlight over several weeks.**

This approach allows the student to systematically vary the amount of sunlight each tree receives and measure the resulting growth over an extended period, providing clear evidence to support or refute their hypothesis.
