The third one is most relevant to you because you want to know specifically in the case of aldehydes and ketones, but general SN2 reaction as nucleophile, so if you want to go check those out as well, but I think this third one will help you.

Its a Sn2 rxn as Nh2 is attacking and h2O is released Nh2 isgood Nucleophile
