Hasty generalization fallacy is being committed.
Over-generalization fallacy is another name for the hasty generalisation fallacy. It basically makes the allegation that the evidence is insufficient. Basically, if you have only one or two examples to support your assertion, you cannot state that it is true. When you extrapolate from a single event or a tiny sample size, you are essentially asserting that the limitations of that experience apply to all situations.
A hasty generalisation is a mistaken generalisation that is typically made because of a small sample size. Hasty generalisations relate to conclusions reached based on incomplete data or in situations where the logical flow has been reversed in all circumstances.
The question seems incomplete, the complete question is:
"Research conservationists at Michigan State University have become increasingly concerned about zebra mussel infestations and their ecological effects on local habitats. They tested one lake in each of Michigan's 83 counties and found that 45% of those lakes have infestations. From this research, they conclude that 45% of all the lakes in Michigan (i.e., 11,000 lakes in total) have similar infestations."
