WBJEE
WBJEE 2012
Amines
A
hyperconjugative effect of $Me$-group in $MeNH_{2}$
11%
B
resonance effect of phenyl group in aniline
62%
C
lower molecular weight of methyl amine as compared to that of aniline
12%
D
resonance effect of -$NH_{2}$ group in $MeNH_{2}$
15%

The lone pair of electrons, present in N-atom in aniline involve in ring resonance.
So it is less basic than methyl amine.
