Answer:

C. overgeneralization.

Step-by-step explanation:

-Undergenerization refers to using words in a limited form.

-Underutilization is about not using something to the full potential it has.

-Overgeneralization refers to using one experience to generalize all.

-Word syntaxis is about the right structure of words to form a correct sentence.

According to this, the fact that he thinks all cups have milk in them is an example of overgeneralization.
