E) The advantage of the linked list over the array to implement such data structures as lists of items is that more items can always be added to it. This is known as a dynamic structure, unlike the fixed-sized array which is known as a static structure. Disadvantages of the linked list are that they are no easy to access randomly, unlike an array, and they are often more difficult to implement and debug than code using arrays. Further, while the linked list stores one Node for each item in the list, each Node requires at least two data items, the information, and a link to the next Node, so they may use more memory than an array.
