What are the eardrums of the frog called?

What is the function of the brown spot in frog?
The brow spot is a mark left behind after the skull development of the frog. Before the skull is fully formed, there is a large gap between front and back bones creating a hole, much like the fontanel of a newborn human. A gland called the pineal gland, an outgrowth of the brain, reaches the surface of the frogs head during this time. As the parts of the skull close during development, the pineal gland gets pushed back and the brow spot is formed, marking its former connection with the surface. There is no function of this brow spot, other than happening to display the spot where part of the skull development took place.The brow spot does not have a function. it simply marks the spot where, before the skull had developed and closed, part of the brain reached the surface. After the skull formed and closed, the hole was shut and the brain was separated from the surface leaving a brow spot.
What is the function of camouflage in the wild?
Camouflage is the process of blending into the background. It only works if the predator hunts by looking - animals who hunt by sound or smell are not fooled by camouflage! Many animals have color patterns which match the environment in which they live. If they freeze against this background, they blend in and are harder to see.
