Solution

The correct option is A True
  1. In photosynthesis, energy is transferred to ATP in the light-dependent stage and then used during synthesis in the light-independent stage.
  2. Chemiosmosis produces ATP during the light reaction of photosynthesis, which is then used in the dark reaction to make carbohydrates.
  3. In the six turns of the Calvin cycle, 18 ATPs and 12 NADPH molecules are used to make one glucose molecule.

Final answer: The given statement is true.
