Consider the partial implementations of a 3-bit modulus 8 up-counter as shown below. To complete the circuit, input X should be

A. X = Q<sub>1</sub> + Q<sub>2</sub>

B. X = Q<sub>1</sub>Q<sub>2</sub>

C. X = Q<sub>0</sub>Q<sub>1</sub>

D. <span class="math-tex">\({\rm{X}} = {\rm{}}{{\rm{Q}}_0}\;\overline {{Q_1}}\)</span>
