Arms are derived from common ancestors, design constraints between sp are due to the common ancestors. Wings: wings are co-opted from fore-limbs becoming wings. For insects, wings are not a co-opted set of legs that have turned into wings. Penguins that swim are flapping their wings similar to that of how birds fly. Difference between dolphin moving fin up and down vs tuna fin moving left and right. Tails are fundamentally swishing through the water in a similar manner they do have their differences. Muscles acts on levers and pulls bones thus muscle contraction.
