Sensible heat:

The increase or decrease in heat does not alter the state of matter but merely causes a change in temperature. This type of heat is called sensible heat.

Latent heat:

During a phase transition, the temperature remains constant while the state of matter changes. The heat absorbed or released by the substance at this time is called latent heat.
