Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Well this is because when a plant is planted water goes from the soil, into the roots then finally distributed to other parts of the plant.

So when plants have been plucked or uprooted water no longer has access to the plant which may result to the plant being dried up and will possibly die

Because:

Their roots are no longer in the soil. Thus, can't absorb water and mineral ions needed for plant growth via photosynthesis.

Hope this helps!
