Answer: Yes,

Roots need both water and oxygen, and when surrounded by water, they cannot take up oxygen. Plants may slow in growth after a flush of new growth or a heavy flowering. During these periods and while it is dormant, a plant will need less water.

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

It does because of the fact that plants need water to live and the grow. Water helps the plant grow, and certain plants would need less or more water based on their roots, leaves, and tempurature tolerancy.
