Kinetic versus potential skydiver $|$ Problem

A skydiver jumps out of a perfectly good airplane.

As she gets closer to Earth's surface, would you expect her potential and kinetic energy to increase or decrease? Ignore air resistance in this case.

Potential energy increases, kinetic energy increases up to a constant value.

Potential energy increases, kinetic energy decreases.

Potential energy decreases, kinetic energy decreases.

Potential energy decreases, kinetic energy increases

Potential energy decreases, kinetic energy increases up to a constant value.
