The answer to the prompt is persistent and the app will be listed in
System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Camera .
Apps with access to the camera will have a check mark in the above list. You can revoke access by unchecking the app you want to revoke access to. There's a separate list for apps which have requested microphone access.
