b. Name this query: PlantsMissingMaintenance

c. Close the query.

8. Open the MaintenanceLog table. Apply a filter that shows only those plants that have been watered and pruned. Save and close the table.

9. Open the Plants table. Use sorting (in ascending order) so the records are sorted by flower color and then by the date planted for each color. Save and close the table.

10. Close the database and exit Access.

11. Upload and save your file.

12. Submit project for grading.
