The muscle that allows geckos to climb walls is primarily associated with their toe pads, which contain millions of tiny hair-like structures called setae. These setae exploit van der Waals forces, creating a strong adhesive effect that enables geckos to cling to and navigate vertical surfaces. The unique structure of their toes, combined with the flexibility of the muscles, allows for remarkable climbing abilities.
