**(Select all that apply.)** Given a table `Calendar` with the column `Date` that records values of type `DATE`, which statement(s) is valid to postpone the `Date` of all rows by one month?

(Select all that apply.) Given a table <code>Calendar</code> with the column <code>Date</code> that records values of type <code>DATE</code>, which statement(s) is valid to postpone the <code>Date</code> of all rows by one month?

The SQL statement selects tasks that are due throughout the next 7 days.

The SQL statement selects tasks with past due dates.

The SQL statement selects tasks that are due today.

The SQL statement selects tasks with future due dates.

Given a table `Tasks` that records due tasks, what does the following SQL statement achieve?

```sql
SELECT title, description
FROM Tasks
WHERE DATEDIFF(due_date, CURRENT_DATE()) < 0;
```

Given a table <code>Tasks</code> that records due tasks, what does the following SQL statement achieve?
<pre><code class="language-sql">SELECT title, description
FROM Tasks
WHERE DATEDIFF(due_date, CURRENT_DATE()) &lt; 0;
</code></pre>
