Module
B
Node
C
Array
D
Step
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Each element in a linked list is stored in the form of a node. A node is a collection of two sub-elements or parts. A data part that stores the element and a next part that stores the link to the next node. A linked list is formed when many such nodes are linked together to form a chain.

Detailed explanation-2: -Linked list is a linear data structure, meaning that one data point follows another. It’s a list of values that could be stored at non-contiguous locations in memory, called nodes, connected by links. Each node contains data and a pointer to the next node. Unlike arrays, linked lists don’t allow random access.

Detailed explanation-3: -A Linked List node usually contains 2 properties stored in it. They are: The value to be stored in the current node. The reference or address of the next node, or NULL if it is the last node.

Detailed explanation-4: -Linked lists are linear data structures that hold data in individual objects called nodes. These nodes hold both the data and a reference to the next node in the list.

Detailed explanation-5: -A linked list is a data structure that stores a sequence of elements. Each element in the list is called a node, and each node has a reference to the next node in the list. The first node in the list is called the head, and the last node in the list is called the tail.
