What is massive body of plasma that shines due to energy released by nuclear fusion?
The sun and other stars.
What is the scientific definition of fuel?
A substance that produces useful energy when it undergoes a chemical or nuclear reaction. Fuel such as coal, wood, oil, or gas provides energy when burned. Compounds in the body such as glucose are broken down into simpler compounds to provide energy for metabolic processes. Some radioactive substances, such as plutonium and tritium, provide energy by undergoing nuclear fission or fusion.
Is the sun a burning ball of gasses and dust?
Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines "star" as "a self-luminous gaseous spheroidal celestial body of great mass which produces energy by means of nuclear fusion reactions." So, yes, in more simple terms, it is a big ball of burning gas.

What determines if n object in outer space is a Planet?
A planet is a celestial body which orbits a star, a planet must be large enough for it's own gravity to create it's spherical shape but not too large that it undergoes thermonuclear fusion (thermonuclear fusion is the process of star becoming a star due to it's size) there are many other factors but that was a basic answer.
Is the sun a moon or a star?
Our sun is a star. Stars are self-luminous celestial body which is made out of a mass of gasses that is held together by gravity. The light seen by us are caused by nuclear reactions occurring within the stars core. A moon is a celestial body that orbits a planet or other celestial body.
