For these use querySelectorAll with a descendant selector.
Keep in mind, a descendant selector is the parent target and children targets separated by a space.
More info:
https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_combinators.asp
This passes task 1:
let navigationLinks = document.querySelectorAll('nav a');
See if you can figure out the other two.
Also, keep in mind that with querySelector and querySelectorAll for ids you need a # and classes you need a .
I hope that helps.
Stay safe and happy coding!
