For example

CH3 - COOH, is the acetic acid or etanoic acid.

In the given ,R-NH2 is amine functional group ,thus, option B is correct.

What is amine functional group ?

Amines are classified according to the number of carbon atoms bonded directly to the nitrogen atom. A primary (1°) amine has one alkyl (or aryl) group on the nitrogen atom, a secondary (2°) amine has two, and a tertiary (3°) amine has three.

The functional group of an amine is the nitrogen atom connected by three sigma bonds to alkyl groups or hydrogen atoms.

The nitrogen atom of an amine can also be included in a ring. Such amines are called "heterocycles.

Amines resemble ammonia structurally where nitrogen can bond up to 3 hydrogen atoms. It is also characterized by various properties that are based on carbon connectivity.

Therefore, amine class of organic compound is contained in the R-NH2 functional  group.
