Best Answer

The Anvil is one of 3 tiny bones in the ear connecting the Ear drum (Tympanic membrane) to the cochlear. like the other 2 bones its function is to transfer sound movements of the Ear drum to be transmitted to the cochlear so that the hairs within the cochlear can sense sound. It's how we hear!

The other 2 bones are called "Stirrup" and "Hammer"
