Is it a purebred or a hybrid?

In Guinea pigs, the allele for a smooth coat (S) is dominant over the allele for a rough coat (s). Explain how you could find out whether a guinea pig with a smooth coat is a hybrid or a purebred.

With SS, you sound know it is a purebread. This is due to no s allele. If it is Ss, it is a hybrid due to having both alleles
