tested in lab: only the secondary nodes restarts. the cisco documentation referring to both nodes restarting is from 2011 and for ise 1.0, so it is no longer valid
Whenever we deregister a node in ISE, that node restarts and causes a delay.
Reference : https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/ise/3-2/admin_guide/b_ise_admin_3_2/b_ISE_admin_32_deployment.html
the cisco documentation at this link:
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/ise/1-0/install_guide/ise10_deploy.html#:~:text=Note%20For%20example%2C%20if%20your,and%20secondary%20nodes%20become%20standalone.)
clearly states:
if your deployment has two nodes and you deregister the secondary node, both nodes in this primary-secondary pair are restarted. (The former primary and secondary nodes become standalone.)
Answer: A
>> When a node is registered, the primary PAN pushes the configuration data to the secondary node, and the application server on the secondary node restarts.

Effects of Modifying Nodes in Cisco ISE
When you make any of the following changes to a node in a Cisco ISE, that node restarts, which causes a delay:
Register a node (Standalone to Secondary)
Deregister a node (Secondary to Standalone)
Change a primary node to Standalone (if no other nodes are registered with it; Primary to Standalone)
Promote an Administration node (Secondary to Primary)
Change the personas (when you assign or remove the Policy Service or Monitoring persona from a node)
Modify the services in the Policy Service node (enable or disable the session and profiler services)
Restore a backup on the primary and a sync up operation is triggered to replicate data from primary to secondary nodes
Taken straight from:
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/ise/2-4/admin_guide/b_ISE_admin_guide_24/m_setup_cisco_ise.html#ID193
The correct answer is D. The primary node becomes standalone.
When a secondary node is deregistered from a Cisco ISE distributed deployment, the connection between the primary and secondary node is lost. As a result, the primary node becomes standalone and all of the configuration data that was stored on the secondary node is lost.
The other answer choices are incorrect:
A. The secondary node restarts. This is not correct because the secondary node is no longer part of the deployment after it is deregistered.
B. The primary node restarts. This is also not correct. The primary node remains running after the secondary node is deregistered.
C. Both nodes restart. This is not correct. Only the primary node remains running after the secondary node is deregistered.
Note For example, if your deployment has two nodes and you deregister the secondary node, both nodes in this primary-secondary pair are restarted. (The former primary and secondary nodes become standalone.)
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/ise/1-0/install_guide/ise10_deploy.html#:~:text=Note%20You%20cannot%20deregister%20a%20primary%20Administration%20ISE%20node.&text=Note%20For%20example%2C%20if%20your,and%20secondary%20nodes%20become%20standalone.)
ISE 3.0 and later - Youki82 is correct:
Primary PAN node does NOT become standalone when Secondary is deregistered:
"If the node has a Primary role, and there are no other nodes registered with it, the Make Standalone button appears next to it." - this means that you have to make it Standalone manually after deregistration of Secondary.
"When you make any of the following changes to a node in a Cisco ISE, that node restarts...
- Register a node (Standalone to Secondary)
- DEREGISTER a node (Secondary to Standalone)
- Change a primary node to Standalone (if no other nodes are registered with it; Primary to Standalone)
- Promote an Administration node (Secondary to Primary)
...
Note
When you promote the secondary Administration node to the primary PAN position, the primary node will assume a secondary role. This causes both the primary and secondary nodes to restart, causing a delay. "

The answer is A
Exam now is about version 3.1 which matches answer A, The answer C was the old ISE exam & version, The provided links from friends here regarding answer C is correct in the past but now Exam is about ver 3.0 & 3.1
Note For example, if your deployment has two nodes and you deregister the secondary node, both nodes in this primary-secondary pair are restarted. (The former primary and secondary nodes become standalone.)
Provided answer is correct.
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/ise/1-0/install_guide/ise10_deploy.html#:~:text=Note%20You%20cannot%20deregister%20a%20primary%20Administration%20ISE%20node.&text=Note%20For%20example%2C%20if%20your,and%20secondary%20nodes%20become%20standalone.)
ANSWER IS D, the primary node continues to operate as a standalone node, handling all the necessary functions of Cisco ISE, including authentication, authorization, and policy enforcement. The primary node will no longer have a failover partner or redundancy provided by the secondary node.
isco ISE Node Deregistration
To remove a node from a deployment, you must deregister it. When you deregister a secondary node from the primary PAN, the status of the deregistered node changes to standalone, and the connection between the primary and the secondary node is lost. Replication updates are no longer sent to the deregistered standalone node.
