The correct answer is: Last month, the plant was a seed. This month, the plant is a mature plant.

To determine the life cycle stage of a tomato plant, we need to understand its typical growth stages. The life cycle of a tomato plant consists of the following stages: seed, seedling, mature plant, flower, and fruit.

Based on the given information, last month, the tomato plant grew but did not have flowers. This indicates that it was in the seedling stage. Seedlings are young plants that have just sprouted from the seed and are still developing.

This month, the tomato plant produces flowers and fruit. This indicates that it has reached the mature plant stage. Mature plants are fully developed and capable of producing flowers and fruit.

So, the correct answer is: Last month, the plant was a seedling. This month, the plant is a mature plant.
