Whenever I click Check Work on Task 2 it tells me Task 1 is no longer passing, even though I haven't changed it...

I'm running into this issue where, after I complete Task 1, I click Check Work on Task 2 and it gives me the error that Task 1 is no longer passing, even though I haven't changed it.

js/app.js 
let navigationLinks = document.querySelectorAll('nav a');
let galleryLinks = document.guerySelectorAll('#gallery ul');
let footerImages;

Any syntax error will cause the re-checks of previous tasks to fail.

In this case, it is caused by the spelling of "guerySelectorAll" (with a "g") instead of "querySelectorAll".

Also remember that the tag name for a link is "a" (not "ul").
