Unipennate: The muscle fascicles insert into the central tendon from one side of the tendon only, as in the extensor digitorum of the forearm, and extensor digitorum longus muscle of the leg. Bipennate: The fascicles insert into the tendon from two opposite sides so the muscle “grain” resembles a feather.
