Answer 1

"Una cebra es negra con rayas blancas Now that is grammatically correct, but I don't know if it's true or not.

It could be that "Una cebra es blanca con rayas negras." (¿Quién sabe?)

The Title of your book should be capitalized and spelled correctly. "Aventuras."

Here is a quote i found: It was previously believed that zebras were white animals with black stripes, since some zebras have white underbellies. Embryological evidence, however, shows that the animal's background color is black and the white stripes and - bosquederoble, Apr 20, 2016

bellies are additions. I would have used the white belly to argue for white, but apparently it is not so. :D - bosquederoble, Apr 20, 2016
