Find plants that are the same type and size. Plant them in identical pots with matching soil if not already in suitable pots. Place some in direct sunlight, some in an area that gets sunlight part of the day, and some in a dark place.

Yes. Sunlight is a necessity for plants to perform photosynthesis which is how they make food (glucose). This glucose is needed for the plant so survive and more is needed to help the plant grow.
