No, the Grand Canyon is a river valley eroded into rock - as such it is an absence of rock. However the rocks through which the river has eroded are, in the main, of sedimentary origin.
Canyons can cut through any formation of rock, igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic.
Yes a sedimentary rock is often made up of clasts from a myriad of sources these can include other weathered and eroded sedimentary rocks
they form
the most common minerals in clastic sedimentary rocks are likely
Clastic (those formed of particles of other rocks) and non-clastic (organic and chemical precipitate or evaporite rocks).
Shale, sandstone, and conglomerate are examples of clastic sedimentary rock.
No. The rocks you describe are clastic or detrital sedimentary rocks.

Clastic sedimentary rocks are made of broken pieces of preexisting rock that are compacted together. The mineral quartz makes up sixty percent of the clastic sedimentary rocks.

They are classified as clastic or non-clastic. Clastic sedimentary rocks are formed from rock particles of various sizes. Non-clastic rocks are formed from precipitation of minerals out of solution or by the lithification of organic matter.
Metamorphic rocks are classified by foliation or lack there of, not sedimentary rocks. They are classified into Clastic Sedimentary, and Chemical Sedimentary.
None of the above. These terms describe sedimentary rocks. Granite is igneous.
