Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The purpose of placing items (demos for function) in the morphological chart if he or she knows that they would not be feasible.

Explanation of Solution

In morphological chart every possible solution is placed even though knowing that they might not be feasible to avail those choices whenever a compatible combination is chosen according to a particular theme such as, economy, environment, ergonomics etc..

A compatible solution might not be correct for a particular theme which makes the designer to take all possible combinations into account.

Also every possible combination is represented in morphological chart to identify the solution space of a design problem.

Thus the above discussion states the purpose of placing items (demos for function) in the morphological chart even if he or she knows that they would not be feasible.
