The given statement is FALSE. It is because there is partial correctness in this. The ATP is definitely used in dark reaction for the breakdown of glucose, but glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is involved in the synthesis of glucose. There are six molecules of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate made during TCA cycle, out of which one exits the cycle, and begin the synthesis of glucose while the other five are recycled for regeneration of RuBP (Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate).
This makes the statement FALSE.
Hope it helps, Good luck !!!!
