A crocodile has a special membrane that protects his eyes. He can also close his nose.
The nose openings are two slits that act like shut off valves at the top of the nose, and will clamp shut in a tight seam, to close out the water. We do the same thing when we clamp our nose closed with our fingers when we want to hold our breath.
They have a leathery flap of skin over the ear openings on the side of the head, which protects them from damage, it doesn’t keep out water because the flap is an open slit towards the rear. The actual ear canal is covered over by the tympanum also called the eardrum.
A crocodile ears and nose have things to prevent water from getting inside of its body.
