Explanation

Removing a user from a Workfront group revokes their access to resources tied to that group - such as group-specific projects, portfolios, programs, and templates - because group membership is what grants those scoped permissions (C). Option A is wrong because task assignments are not deleted when group membership changes; tasks remain intact and still assigned to the user. Option B is incorrect because Workfront does not automatically revert a user's permissions to "system defaults" on group removal - their access level and other group memberships remain unchanged. Option D is wrong because group removal is a membership change, not a status change; deactivation is a separate, explicit action.

Memory tip: Think of a Workfront group like a keycard for a restricted floor - removing someone from the group takes away their keycard (group resource access), but it doesn't fire them (inactive status) or erase their work (task deletion).
