Final answer:

NADH/FADH2 is not produced in step TCA-4 of the TCA cycle.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the TCA cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle, NADH/FADH2 is produced in several steps. However, there is one step in which NADH/FADH2 is not produced, which is TCA-4. During TCA-4, the enzyme succinate thiokinase converts succinyl CoA into succinate and GTP, but NADH/FADH2 is not produced.
