The function of the tympanic membrane (eardrum) is to transmit sound waves from the environment into sound vibrations that are picked up by the middle ear auditory ossicles. The ossicles will amplify and carry the vibrations to the inner ear where they are converted into electrical energy and sent to the brain for interpretation.
