The two sentences that describe the effects of the Agricultural Revolution in Britain are the following: the major industrial cities became overcrowded as workers from rural areas moved there and because of the steady increase in food production, the population nearly doubled between 1800 and 1850.

The Industrial Revolution in Great Britain changed the life of many people. There were advantages such as the creation of many jobs, although most of the workers had low wages. But among the disadvantages were that people from the rural areas started to migrate to the larger cities where the fabrics were located. It increased the number of people in those places and the result was overcrowding. People lived in overcrowded places with the risk of unhealthy living conditions, the spread of diseases, and crime. During 1800 and 1850, the population nearly doubled and the cities lacked some services to attend so many people.
