To accurately determine the location of the most recent common ancestor of alligators and T. rex on a phylogenetic tree, we typically would need to refer to a specific diagram or evolutionary tree. Without seeing the specific points (A, B, C, D) that you mentioned, I can't provide a definitive answer.
However, in general, alligators are part of the group Archosauria, which also includes dinosaurs, including T. rex. The most recent common ancestor of alligators and T. rex would lie somewhere in the Archosaur lineage before the split into the lineage that led to modern crocodilians and the lineage that led to dinosaurs.
If you can provide a description of the points in the context of a tree, I could help you identify the most likely answer.
