Correct Answer is: (b) Acetaldehyde 

The Cannizzaro’s reaction is not given by Acetaldehyde. Aldehydes that contain alpha hydrogen atoms are not involved in Cannizzaro’s reaction and aldehyde like acetaldehyde contains alpha hydrogen in it. So, that's why it can't participate or involve in this reaction.
