Correct answer: Royal jelly

All honeybee larvae start out eating royal jelly, but only the chosen future queens are fed this nutrient-rich secretion exclusively throughout their development. This special diet triggers epigenetic changes that activate her reproductive organs. Interestingly, royal jelly is produced by the glands in the heads of young nurse bees.
