Use the following information to answer the question. A plantlike organism on the hypothetical planet Pandora has three genetic traits: leaf color, controlled by gene L; a stem texture, controlled by gene S; and root length controlled by gene R. The three genes are linked and recombine. A geneticist performed a testcross with a strain of the organism that is heterozygous for the three traits. She recorded progeny with the following phenotypic distribution: Phenotypes Leaves Stems Roots Number 1 l S R 14 2 l S r 0 3 l s R 32 4 l s r 440 5 L s R 0 6 L s r 16 7 L S r 28 8 L S R 470 Total 1,000 What is the approximate distance between genes L and S
