To achieve this requirement, you can create a plugin in Dynamics 365 that triggers on the `Update` event of the `account` entity. This plugin will then retrieve the modified attributes of the `account` record and update the corresponding attributes on the related `contact` records.

Below is a sample outline of how you might implement this plugin using C# and the Dynamics 365 SDK. This is a basic example, and you may need to adapt it based on your specific business logic and requirements.

```csharp
using System;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Query;

public class AccountUpdatePlugin : IPlugin
{
    public void Execute(IServiceProvider serviceProvider)
    {
        // Obtain the execution context from the service provider.
        IPluginExecutionContext context = (IPluginExecutionContext)serviceProvider.GetService(typeof(IPluginExecutionContext));

        // Check if the plugin is triggered by an Update message on the account entity.
        if (context.InputParameters.Contains("Target") && context.InputParameters["Target"] is Entity)
        {
            // Retrieve the target account entity.
            Entity accountEntity = (Entity)context.InputParameters["Target"];

            // Check if the modified attributes exist.
            if (accountEntity.Attributes.Contains("attributename1") || accountEntity.Attributes.Contains("attributename2"))
            {
                // Get the related contacts.
                QueryExpression query = new QueryExpression("contact");
                query.ColumnSet = new ColumnSet("contactid", "attributename1", "attributename2");
                query.Criteria.AddCondition("parentcustomerid", ConditionOperator.Equal, accountEntity.Id);

                EntityCollection contacts = context.OrganizationService.RetrieveMultiple(query);

                // Update the attributes on each related contact.
                foreach (Entity contact in contacts.Entities)
                {
                    // Copy the modified attributes from the account to the contact.
                    contact["attributename1"] = accountEntity.GetAttributeValue<string>("attributename1");
                    contact["attributename2"] = accountEntity.GetAttributeValue<int>("attributename2");

                    // Update the contact entity.
                    context.OrganizationService.Update(contact);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
```

Note:
1. Replace `"attributename1"`, `"attributename2"`, etc. with the actual attribute names you want to copy.
2. Ensure that you register this plugin on the `Update` event of the `account` entity using the Plugin Registration Tool or equivalent method.

Additionally, it's important to thoroughly test any plugins in a development environment before deploying them to a production environment, and consider error handling and logging based on your specific requirements.
