Aisha's video series on "Selecting Page Elements with jQuery" introduced various types of selectors: attribute, ID, descendant, and class selectors, but didn't explain them at all, would someone be so kind as to elaborate on each of these and what they do? Note: I haven't taken the CSS class as I'm working through the Full Stack JS track.

The jQuery selectors are based closely on the CSS selectors, with a few additions. So you might consider diverting from your track to take the CSS Basics or shorter and more specific CSS Selectors course.
