Answer:

B. It forced millions of workers to leave farms and seek employment in urban factories.

Step-by-step explanation:

Though the new changes to farming caused the British population to be better nourished and healthier, the Enclosure Acts passed allowing the rich lords to purchase the farmlands and push small scale farmers out of their lands. Due to these changes the now ex-famers had to migrate to cities and find work in factories.

I hope this helps.
