Answer: changes in heat energy change temperature

Explanation: heat energy can be thought of as energy in individual atoms or molecules, which vibrate more as energy increases. Temperature is a measure of heat energy. For example, many substances expand as heat energy causes it atoms/molecules to vibrate more and occupy more space. We can use this property to measure energy as temperature by using the expansion of a liquid as in thermonmeters.
