A general or nonspecific observation refers to a broad statement or perception that lacks detail or specificity. It often captures an overall impression without delving into particularities or nuances. For example, saying "the weather is nice today" is a general observation, as it does not specify temperature, humidity, or other specific conditions. Such observations can be useful for quick assessments but may lack the depth needed for detailed analysis.
A general or nonspecific observation is often referred to as a "generalization." It represents a broad statement or conclusion drawn from specific instances, lacking detailed specificity. Generalizations can be useful for forming hypotheses or understanding trends, but they may also oversimplify complex situations.
I'm having a bit of a problem accepting your nonspecific example.
It could be just about anything, that is why it is called "general." It is a chart that is organized for you to record things you observe about whatever subject you are observing. See related links for an example of a general observation chart used in the medical field.

A fact can be either a general observation (water boils at 100o Celsius under normal atmospheric pressure) or a specific observation (this glass contains 100 milliliters of water). A law of nature is some illuminating general observation that helps us to understand how the universe works. The classic example of this is Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation - which remains very useful, even though it has been subject to revision by Einstein.

Antibodies do not play a role in the nonspecific immune response; they are part of the specific immune response, which targets specific pathogens. The nonspecific immune response relies on physical barriers (like skin), phagocytic cells, and other general defenses that act against a wide range of invaders without specificity. Substances like cytokines and complement proteins do contribute to the nonspecific immune response by enhancing inflammation and promoting the destruction of pathogens.

Your body's most important nonspecific defense is the skin. Other nonspecific defenses include mucus, sweat, and tears.
