Some advantages of the Yagi- Uda Antenna include that this is a widely used design and low cost. The construction also is simple. Some disadvantages are that the receiver of the Yagi-Uda Antenna may have problem receiving signal.

Yes - reflector element and directional elements.
yagi udda antenna has only one reflector...but it has many directors...depending upon gain and efficiency...the length of reflector is normally...more than one-half of wavelength... and directors have a length less than one-half of wavelength...
Directors in an antenna are elements that enhance the antenna's directivity and gain. Typically used in Yagi-Uda antennas, directors are placed in front of the driven element and are usually shorter than it. They work by focusing the radiated energy in a specific direction, improving performance in that direction while reducing it in others. This results in a more efficient antenna for applications like communication and broadcasting.
A Yagi-Uda antenna typically has an odd number of elements to ensure proper impedance matching and to enhance its directional characteristics. The driven element, which is usually a dipole, is flanked by one or more parasitic elements—reflectors and directors—that work together to focus the antenna's radiation pattern. Having an odd number of elements allows for a balanced configuration, optimizing gain and minimizing side lobes while maintaining a stable feedpoint impedance. This design also helps in achieving better front-to-back ratios and overall efficiency.

how to measure the length of elements and spacing of elements
bandwidth is less..
Yes - reflector element and directional elements.
Yes, the Yagi-Uda antenna has several parasitic elements, in the form of a reflector ("behind" the driven element) and the directional elements ("in front" of the driven element).
A Yagi-Uda directional antenna consists of a driven element (a dipole), and one or more parasitic elements -- a reflector (5% larger than the driven element) and directional elements (5% shorter than the driven element). This difference helps increases the gain and directionality of the antenna in the desired direction.
The Yagi array allows a significant increase in antenna gain (expressed in dBi or Db over isotropic) by the simple addition of parasitic elements to a dipole or folded dipole.
no..it has less bandwidth

A yagi is a directional antenna consisting of two or more dipoles.
directors and receivers are the main part of a yagi uda anteena there can be many directors and receivers as more receivers will surely increase our gain but we use only one receiver because the gain will not increase much but the cost will surel increase
Yes.
