The access time for items is proportional to the distance they are from the end of the list which can become very time consuming for long lists.

What advantages of a sorted list over a linked list?
All lists are linked lists; there is no such thing as a separate "sorted list". There are algorithms that can sort a list, of course, but they all work on linked lists.
What is binary linked list?
There is no such thing. There are binary trees and linked lists.
Disadvantages of linked lists in c?
Because the C programming language leaves the responsibility for memory allocation and pointers entirely with the programmer, the disadvantage of linked lists over some other linear data structures (such as arrays) is that the bear a risk or memory leaks and invalid pointers. The fact that the size of a linked list is generally not deterministic is also commonly viewed a disadvantage over statically linked linear containers (e.g. arrays) in some systems, primarily in embedded systems. Compared to containers of higher order (such as trees or hash tables), search operations in a linked list are generally slower. Compared to a double linked list, removal and insertion of items (except head and tail) is generally more expensive.
What is the disadvantage of singly linked list?
This is a searching question.
How can we represent polynomials using linked lists?

Is there a c program to multiply two polynomials using linked lists?

What is a MET?

What is a linked list used for?
A linked list is used in computer science to store data as a series of related nodes. Linked lists are used as the basis for abstract data types when programming. The chief advantage of a linked list is that data can be added or removed from the list without having to reorganize the whole list. A drawback to linked lists can be that it is difficult to sort, organize, or recall specific information from the list.
What Linked list uses.type of memory allocation?
Linked lists use dynamic memory allocation (also called "heap memory allocation", as the linked list is stored in heap memory).
What are the applications of structures?
Data structures could be used to implement an efficient database. Linked lists for example will optimize insertion and deletion for ordered lists.
