True seals have ears, just not external ears. Their ears are simple holes on the sides of their heads, but they have the same general internal ear structures as any other mammal. Sound carries very well in water, so true seals can hear perfectly well when submerged. Note that other marine mammals - whales, dolphins, manatees and such - also lack external ears. In air, they can still hear, but perhaps not as well as some other mammals.

How does a sea animal like dolphin survive in water without gills please give answer same Long?
The dolphins (whales and porpoises, etc) are aquatic mammals. As mammals they need to come to the surface and breath air into and out of their internal lungs. They can only stay underwater for a period of time, depending on the species. Fish, on the other hand, are not mammals and breath by passing water over their gills, extracting oxygen, and they have no need to come to the surface to breath.
