"You are making a specific claim about the mutation rate for alligators. Where did you get the information?" 
No. A "specific" claim would be something akin to "alligators have 232 random mutations per generation."
A "broad" claim would something akin to "alligators have a very low rate of random mutations because the species hasn't really changed in 200 million years."
Thus ends the lesson for today on the distinctions between "broad" from that of "specific."
A "broad" claim would something akin to "alligators have a very low rate of random mutations because the species hasn't really changed in 200 million years."OK, you have made a rather broad claim. That is actually worse, unless you have a source. What is your source for the claim that alligators have a low mutation rate?
