Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
Similar to membership changes within a single Scrum Team, adding or removing additional Scrum Teams working on the same product will impact productivity in the short term. Adding additional teams often go through recognizable stages as they change from being a collection of strangers to a united group with common goals. Bruce Tuckman's Forming, Storming, Norming, and Performing model describes these stages.

The question itself is very vague about if the velocity change is short term or long term. Short term defo reduced by long term might be increased
