Answer:

DESC.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use DESC to sort the records in descending order along with the ORDER BY clause.

We have to provide an key to the ORDER BY clause so that it will sort according to that column.We don't have to specify anything to sort in ascending order by default values are sorted in ascending order but to sort the records in descending order we have to specify DESC.
