Everything in regards to evolution is a happy coincidence until proven otherwise.
Yes, even reproduction. It just happens to be that the only lifeforms to survive reproduced therefore all life reproduces.
The "biological imperative" is a pseud myth coined by someone who fancied themselves an intellectual atheist and tried to win an argument with a creationist about evolution.
There is little evidence to support this hypothesis.
By the same logic, all things consume therefore consumption is the "biological imperative".
