The first whales had legs (so people/scientists say) and if all the land the 4 legged creature walked on turned to water during an ice age then the animal would have to adapt to it,. So if it all turned to water, the whale would have to adapt to that and get flippers and look completely different.
The introduction of a new predator, the spread of a new disease, the introduction of a toxic substance, or the elimination of a food source are all examples of environmental changes that could affect the survival of a species.

Prey adaptation refers to the ability of a prey species to evolve physical or behavioral characteristics that enhance their survival in the face of predation. This can include camouflage, warning coloration, defensive structures, or reproductive strategies that increase their chances of survival and reproduction. Adaptations may vary depending on the specific predators the prey species faces.
This structural adaptation is called mimicry. Mimicry allows an organism to closely resemble a harmful species in order to gain protection from predators that avoid the harmful species. By mimicking the warning signals or appearance of a harmful species, the mimicking organism can deter predators and increase its chances of survival.
A beneficial adaptation would be one that increases the chance of survival of an animal. An example is a bird's beak changing shapes to be able to retrieve a certain type of seed on an island.
Adaptation is the main factor in ensuring a species survival. Part of that adaptation may mean evolutionary changes, as newer, more adaptable members of a species become dominate.

These are factors, human or otherwise, which affect survival of a species.

It is true but only as a method for the survival of the species.
Factors that can affect the survival and change of a species over time include environmental changes, competition for resources, predation, genetic variation, reproductive success, and adaptation. Species that can adapt to changing conditions, reproduce successfully, and outcompete others are more likely to survive and evolve over time.

Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection has had a profound impact on our understanding of how species change over time. It continues to shape fields such as biology, anthropology, and medicine. It emphasizes the importance of genetic variation and adaptation to the environment in the survival of species.
Adaptation in natural selection refers to the process by which organisms develop traits that help them survive and reproduce in their environment. These traits can include physical characteristics, behaviors, or physiological mechanisms that increase an organism's chances of survival and reproduction. Adaptation contributes to the survival and evolution of species by allowing them to better fit their environment, increasing their chances of passing on their genes to future generations. Over time, these adaptations can lead to the emergence of new species as populations evolve to better suit their surroundings.
Variation in traits is important for the survival and adaptation of species because it allows for genetic diversity. This diversity increases the chances that some individuals will have traits that are better suited for changing environmental conditions. This means that when the environment changes, some individuals will be better able to survive and reproduce, passing on their advantageous traits to future generations. This process, known as natural selection, is essential for the long-term survival and evolution of species.
