Solution

The correct option is D $C H_{3} - C H_{2} - N H_{2}$
The aniline and pyrrole are less basic than aliphatic because lone pair of nitrogen in aromic amines are involved in resonance so it can't accept $H^{+}$ from $N H_{4}^{+}$ ion.
Ethanamine has localised ione pair electron on $N$ thus it can accept $H^{+}$ from $N H_{4}^{+}$ ion. Hence option (d) is correct.
