Question

the image above is one of the many solar farms in virginia, which is currently being used to help provide power for for homes across the state. the major disadvantage of using solar panels to generate electricity is that they
produce energy which is not easily stored for later use
give off carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide
affected by weather events and amount of daylight hours

Explanation:

1. Analyze the first option: Solar energy can be stored (e.g., in batteries), so "produce energy which is not easily stored for later use" is incorrect.
2. Analyze the second option: Solar panels do not give off carbon dioxide or monoxide (they generate electricity via photovoltaics, no combustion), so this is incorrect.
3. Analyze the third option: Solar panels depend on sunlight, so weather (clouds, storms) and daylight hours (seasons, time of day) affect their energy production. This matches a major disadvantage.

Answer:

The correct option is: affected by weather events and amount of daylight hours
