Visually speaking, no you cannot. There are only tendons in the fingers, so it is impossible to have 'muscular' fingers per se. It is possible to have very strong fingers/grip, but this comes from forearm strength, not from finger strength.

No. The muscles that move the fingers are located in the forearm and these muscles are connected to the fingers by long tendons which you can see going to the fingers at the back of your hand.

Muscles move bones only by contraction.

Both work by a series of shortenings of the fibers inside the muscles.

Explain why the muscles of the finger cannot develop as much force as the muscles of the leg?

The muscles that flex and extend your finger are not as large as those in your leg. As a result, the biochemical processes that cause muscles to flex are limited. Trying to exert leg-force with your hands is a bit like using a moped to haul a boat.
