The correct response is:
**an increase in heat and an increase in kinetic energy until a phase change occurs.**
This statement accurately reflects the relationship between thermal energy, heat, and kinetic energy. As thermal energy increases, the kinetic energy of the particles in a substance also increases, leading to an increase in temperature until a phase change occurs.
