Anything that leads to survival and reproductive success is, generally, an intrinsic adaption. If a butterfly were to mimic another butterfly that was poison to it's predators then those self same predators would tend to leave the non-poison butterfly alone as well as the poison butterfly thus leading to survival and reproductive success for the mimic.
An Euglena in an environment with no light has a better chance of survival because Euglenas are photosynthetic organisms that can make their own food using sunlight. Amoebas in an environment with other organisms may face competition for resources or predation, which could decrease their chances of survival.
Yes, behavioral adaptations and instincts are beneficial because they help organisms respond effectively to environmental challenges, find food, avoid predators, and reproduce successfully. These adaptations are shaped by natural selection and have evolved over time to enhance survival and reproductive success.
The process that occurs is called natural selection. Organisms with advantageous genes that increase their chance of survival and reproduction are more likely to pass on these genes to future generations, resulting in a gradual change in the characteristics of the population over time.
Actually, sexual reproduction can increase survival of the overall population by creating diversity. It is more effective over asexual reproduction.
The process of learning allows organisms to acquire information from past experiences to adapt to new situations. Animals can learn to hunt and avoid dangerous situations, such as birds learning to avoid cats. Learning enables animals to better obtain food and shelter and it can increase their mating chances.

Evolution through natural selection is a process that helps organisms increase their chance of survival. Organisms with advantageous traits are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing on these traits to the next generation. Over time, this can lead to the gradual adaptation of populations to their environment, improving their survival and reproductive success.
Adaptation
Inherited traits that increase an organism's chance of survival can also determine its niche by influencing where and how it can successfully live and reproduce. For example, a bird's beak shape can determine its niche by allowing it to efficiently feed on certain types of food. This specialization helps the organism compete for resources and avoid competition with other species.

The less of a chance of survival there is, the less organisms will survive to sexual maturity (when they are able to reproduce)
