a frog’s ear drum works in very much the same way as does a human ear drum. it is a membrane that is stretched across a ring of cartilage like a snare drum that vibrates. crossing the middle ear chamber there is an ossicle called the columella that is connected to the tympanum, and another ossicle, the operculum, that connects this to the oval membrane. this separates the middle ear from the inner ear; and its movements are reflected in vibrations in the fluid in the inner ear; these vibrations cause microscopic hairs to move, which send signals to the frog’s brain. a frog's lungs are also involved in the reception of sound, although they are less sensitive than the frog's ear drums.
