It CAN, but the best way to lean muscles is through strength training. In fact, too MUCH walking or cardio can actually lead to a LOSS of muscle mass.
Cardio is not the great exercise we've been told it was for so long. Strength training (with WEIGHTS), combined with proper diet, is FAR more superior for losing fat and toning muscles.

Yes but you have to walk regulalry and at a fairly brisk pace - typically half an hour a day.
It only tones certain muscles, primarily those in your legs. A better all round exercise is cycling but best of all is swimming.
Swimming is the only exercise that tones your entire body, it improves fitness, strength, stamina etc etc.
