Shown here is a simple two-bit binary counter circuit:





The Q output of the first flip-flop constitutes the least significant bit (LSB), while the second flip-flops Q output constitutes the most significant bit (MSB).



Based on a timing diagram analysis of this circuit, determine whether it counts in an up sequence (00, 01, 10, 11) or a down sequence (00, 11, 10, 01). Then, determine what would have to be altered to make it count in the other direction.
