Explanation:

The agricultural revolution is in many ways the most important turning point in the development of the humans. The humans saw the potential in some of the wild crops and that they can cultivate them. In order to do so, the people had to settle and create farmlands, and so they did. For the first time the people started to produce their own food, and not just that they were producing, but it was in such a high amount that they were able to have food for the whole year and more. This resulted in a gradual increase of the human population, as the worry about food was no longer there, the people had shelters and were living in larger groups so they were protected from predators, and they were not risking and losing their lives while hunting larger animals. As the populations were growing, the settlements that had tens or hundreds of people started to grown, and they gave birth to the first towns and cities.
