Any dry or nearly dry vegetation can be used as biomass, link. Biomass can be made into fossil fuels such as ethanol and gasoline.
It is plant material recently grown rather than fossilised. Thus it could be wood or other crops suitable for burning.
There are many sources of energy and they are actually categorized in to two groups; Renewable and Non Renewable.Renewable SourcesSolar EnergyWind EnergyHydroGeothermalBiomassFor Non Renewable:Fossil FuelsRadioactive Fuels
Renewable energy sources. Whereas resources that have a limited source are called fossil fuels.

Renewable energy is an energy source that is either in relatively limitless supply, or that quickly regenerates when consumed.So solar, wind and water power are kinds of renewable energy, because they keep coming back even after we've used them.Coal and oil are NON renewable sources of energy, because when they're gone, they're gone.Renewable energy is found in abundance and we must make use of these resources such as solar, wind, hydropower, geothermal to the best advantage. For instance wind energy must be tapped to generate electricity.Renewable energy is any source of energy which can be used or consumed without going into the state of being unusable. Examples of nonrenewable energy sources would be petroleum, natural gas, coal, etc. You will find that everyday fossil fuels are nonrenewable sources of energy. Some examples of renewable energy would be; solar energy, hydro energy, heat energy, heat from friction, etc."A source of energy that is not expected to deplete through constant use or can be replaced or grown within a relatively short period of time."The definition of renewable energy is a resource that you can take and give back,(ex. trees, plants, animals, vegetables.By the name itself it has the definition involved i.e., the source of energy that is renewable is called as the renewable energy.... this is other wise called as the non conventional energy because we have replaced the conventional sources of energy ( like coal, oil, fossilfuel etc.,) to the non conventional source of energy( like solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, tidal, wave, peizo, mhd's etc.,)Energy, of itsself, is never renewable. It always degrades towards hbeing low level heat (entropy). There are however renewable energy sources. In general, renewable energy is identified as the energy that comes from sources that can be replenished or those that cannot be depleted. Such sources include wind, rain, tides, sunlight, waves and geothermal energy.Renewable energy is generally defined as energy that comes from resources which are naturally replenished on a human timescale, such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves, and geothermal heat

yes, fossil fuel is another name for non-renewable energy sources.

Petroleum is a broad term for the various purified hydrocarbon fuels that are derived, usually via fractional distillation, from naturally occurring deposits of crude oil and gas. Although there are many means of extracting these chemicals and purifying them to a form usable as fuel by humans, they are typically extracted from the Earth via drilling for these deposits, which were formed over many thousands of years via the geologic forces of pressure and heat acting on decaying vegetable and animal matter. It is from these initial sources that petroleum fuels have gained the name "fossil fuels". Petroleum fuels are not renewable sources of energy for the same reason that nuclear fuels are non-renewable; while the processes for creating these fuels from base chemicals are known and understood, the processes for creating them require pressures and temperatures unattainable except on a very small scale, and much more energy must be put in to creating them artificially than can possibly be extracted from the fuels created.
