The fall of the Alamo, the slaughter of the Texans after they surrendered, the slaughter of the Texans at Goliad; all these factors inspired the Texans to fight harder for independence, defeat General Santa Ana, and free the territory from under the control of Mexico. After all, when the Mexicans showed they had a "no prisoner's taken" policy, it does inspire a person not to surrender when they know they Will be killed if they surrender.
Santa Ana needed a victory and he got it at the Alamo. A wing of his army defeated the Texas forces at Goliad. He then moved his combined army to the east, and split it into different groups along the border. However he was present with one group at the San Jacinto river where Sam Houston defeated this portion. Santa Ana was captured at the Battle of San Jacinto. Some Texans wanted to kill him, but Sam Houston was smarter and had him sign away Texas from Mexico, since he was the Supreme Ruler. The Mexican Parliament voided this signature but it was too late.
All defenders of the Alamo were killed by the invading Mexicans. However, the Battle of the Alamo provided Sam Houston enough time to organize an army that would later defeat the Mexicans at San Jacinto.

No. The Battle of San Jacinto was the final battle of the war between Texas and Mexico and resulted in Santa Anna's surrender to Sam Houston; it took place in San Jacinto. The battle that took place at the Alamo occurred in San Antonio. It was fought before San Jacinto and was a victory for the Mexicans.
The Alamo was a battle fought during the Texas war of independence from Mexico (1835-1836), not during the Mexican-American War (1846-1848). It didn't mean much to the final outcome of the war, as it was almost by any accounts a massacre: 2,400 Mexican troops killed all but two of 182-260 Texans at the Alamo. The battle has been used, however, as a symbol of the Texan Independence Movement with "Remember the Alamo!" as the battle cry with most significance.
