To test the hypothesis that increased sunlight will accelerate the growth of an avocado tree, the student should **compare the growth rates of avocado trees exposed to varying amounts of sunlight over several weeks**. This method allows for controlled experimentation by varying the amount of sunlight each tree receives and measuring their growth over time, providing clear data to support or refute the hypothesis.
