Answer:
The best example of environmental influence that would most likely result in natural selection is that a food resource disappears in a pond, and some frogs in a population can eat the remaining food resource, while others cannot.
Explanation:
Among the environmental factors that can influence natural selection at a given time is the availability of food. Natural selection, from the point of view of evolution, is influenced by adverse environmental conditions, being food shortage one of them.
In conditions of food shortage in a pond, as in the example of the frog population, only the most apt will be able to take advantage of nutritional resources, while the less apt will not be able to survive. The ability to survive with little food available becomes an inherited trait that will be passed on to future generations.
In any case, tolerance to adverse conditions becomes adaptation, which translates into survival and reproductive success.

There is only one measure of "evolutionary success": having more offspring. A "useful" trait gets conserved and propagated by the simple virtue of there being more next-generation individuals carrying it and particular genetic feature "encoding" it. That's all there is to it.
One can view this as genes "wishing" to create phenotypic features that would propagate them (as in "Selfish Gene"), or as competition between individuals, or groups, or populations. But those are all metaphors making it easier to understand the same underlying phenomenon: random change and environmental pressure which makes the carrier more or less successful at reproduction.
You will sometimes hear the term "evolutionary successful species" applied to one that spread out of its original niche, or "evolutionary successful adaptation" for one that spread quickly through population (like us or our lactase persistence mutation), but, again, that's the same thing.
