They use their jaws to hear because their teeth are placed in such a way that the vibrations tell them which direction the sound is coming from.

Actually its ears are just behind its eyes, they look like tiny holes.

yes, they are located a little bit behind the eyes of the dolphin and are little tiny holes that are sometimes hard to see most of the time. To see how they actually look like, search in Google dolphin ear and that's all

Dolphins do not have the external part of their ear because it helps to make their bodies more streamlined, so they can swim faster and easier through the water.

While they don't have ears like those of humans, dolphins do have tiny holes on each side of their head that they use for their hearing sense.
