Figure B.8.8 on page B-55 illustrates the implementation of the register file for the MIPS datapath. Pretend that a new register file is to be built, but that there are only two registers and only one read port, and that each register has only 2 bits of data. Redraw Figure B.8.8 so that every wire in your diagram corresponds to only 1 bit of data (unlike the diagram in Figure B.8.8, in which some wires are 5 bits and some wires are 32 bits). Redraw the registers using D flip flops. You do not need to show how to implement a D flip-flop or a multiplexor
