(N/A) In the $TCA$ cycle,substrate-level phosphorylation occurs during the conversion of Succinyl-$CoA$ to succinic acid.
This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme Succinyl-$CoA$ synthetase.
During this process,a molecule of $GTP$ (guanosine triphosphate) is formed from $GDP$ and inorganic phosphate.
$GTP + ADP \rightarrow GDP + ATP$
This $GTP$ is subsequently converted into $ATP$.
