Answer 1

A disadvantage of a list is that it can take up a lot of memory because it needs extra space for pointers. For arrays, the size is fixed, so if you need more space, you're out of luck unless you create a new array. Queues can be a pain because if they get too full, you might have to deal with overflow issues or use extra space to manage that.
