The Patricians were the more elite families of ancient Rome just like modern day upper class. The Plebeians were the workers or the middle classes of today. These helped keep Rome functioning because you need more then one type of person in your civilization (just like an ecosystem). This helped Rome become so great and powerful because of their great economy from different types of workers.

These are the two social classes in ancient Rome. Patricians were the wealthy land owners while the plebeians were the subordinate farmers, merchants and artisans. In early Rome only patricians could hold any political office, but that was changed by mass exoduses by plebeians rallying for political reform.

Why did plebeians strike?
This is a very good question. If you don't know, Plebeians didn't have all the rights that patricians did. They had limited voices in the government and were less important then the patricians. The Plebeians didn't like what they had so they striked and marched out of Rome. They refused to return to Rome until they had the same rights as the Patricians did. So finally, the Patricians agreed and Plebeians had more rights but still not as much as the Patricians. Though, they made a 3rd group and elected leaders called "Tribunes". Since there were more Plebeians than Patricians, the Plebeians were allowed to control the 3rd group.
