The test tube heatedfrom below will heat up faster. We know that hot water rises up. So, as the hot water will rise up, cold water from top will take it's place.

The test tube which is heated from below will heat up faster.
Explanation:
The test tube which is heated from below will heat up faster. When we heat water from below, the molecules at the bottom of the water start heating and expanding due to which they become light and move upwards. On moving upwards, they transfer the heat energy to other molecules. After transferring their energy, they contract and return to the bottom again. This cycle continues till the entire water gets heated through the convection mode. If water is heated from above, the heated molecules at the top will change their state to form steam, as they can hardly transfer the heat energy to the bottom layer due to the convection currents
