Tendons attach muscles to bones causing the bones to move when the muscle is active. The Deltoid muscle is shaped like the capital version of the Greek letter Delta. Shape: The Rhomboid muscle is shaped like a rhombus.The Tibialis Anterior lies on the front of the shin bone (Tibia). ![]() Location: The interossei are muscles between bones of the hands or feet.Function: Flexor Digitorum is a muscle that flexes digits (fingers or toes).Muscle names have their origins in Latin or Greek and either describe the function, location, or the shape of the muscle.
