Question
What is the time complexity for inserting an item in the linked list implementation of priority queues? Explain “Why”.
Please, note that inserting items should be in sorted order.

Introduction
Linked List:
A linked list is a type of linear data structure that consists of a series of nodes, each of which contains a data item and a referral to the next node. The head node acts as the list's beginning point. Linked lists have slower access speeds than arrays but allow for dynamic allocation of memory and fast insertions and removals.
To find:
