Answer :

Resonance structure : It is defined as when more than one Lewis structure can be drawn, the molecule or ion is said to have resonance.

Resonance is the concept where electrons (bonds) are delocalized over three or more atoms which cannot be depicted with one simple Lewis structure.

Aniline is an aromatic amine in which the -NH_2 group is directly attached to sp^2 hybridized carbon of benzene ring.

An aromatic amine such as aniline exhibits a resonance effect due to which the lone pair on nitrogen participates in delocalization with \pi electrons of benzene ring system and is less available to be shared with other species.

The resonating structure of aniline are shown below.
