Correct Answer:
Solution : The correct option is snakes.
Snakes lack external ears and eardrums, relying instead on a specialised hearing mechanism. They detect sound vibrations and low-frequency sounds through their lower jawbone and the bones in their skull. Vibrations are transmitted to the inner ear, allowing snakes to sense movement and locate prey or potential threats.
