The flexor digitorum profundus is a muscle in the forearm that flexes the fingers and holds the handle.
The flexor carpi radialis and extensor carpi radialis longus allow you 'bend' the wrist as you turn the handle.

What sources of interference with garage door opener should you look for?

Depends on what it is doing or not doing. Transmitter not working? Lighting strike can erase code in opener and need to be reset. Not shutting can be pressure sensitivity to light, sensors at base of door opening blocked or not working. Should have indicator light on each. A staple cutting into wire leading to sensor or wall switch. Odd openings can be someone close with same frequency. If not opening from far enough away, something can be blocking the antenna from picking up signal. There should be 6-8 inch single strand wire from bottom of opener. This is the antenna. A longer piece can be added to this to increase the reception. Troubleshooting: The source of the remote control range problem you may be having could be in your house. At the circuit box, turn off all circuits except the garage door opener. Test the opener. If the problem is eliminated, turn on each circuit one-by-one until the unit presents the reduced range problem. When you find it you will have a short list of home appliances which cause the problem. From there, unplug everything on that circuit and re-plug one-by-one until you find the culprit. Note: the culprit might be on the same circuit as the opener (then you have to unplug everything on that circuit). Once you find the culprit, you might be able to use the appliance if you plug it into a different phase (see AC phase in Home Electricity). Or, if the culprit is on the same circuit you might simply need to move it to a different circuit.

This force is translated into rotational motion, which causes the cutting wheel to rotate and pierce the can lid. Additionally, there is a mechanical advantage in the design of the can opener to make opening cans easier and more efficient.

Why is having 2 bones in the arm better than 1?

The two bones in the forearm allow it to turn better, so it is not necessary to turn the whole arm in oreder to slightly change the angle of the hand. There are three bones in the human arm (radius, ulna, humerus), so the question needs to be revised. If the question was supposed to be why having two bones in the FOREARM is better than one, then the answer is because having two bones is what allows the forearm to rotate. If there were only one bone in the forearm, then we would not be able to do so.
