Igneous Rock turns into a Sedimentary Rock using Weathering and Erosion. Weathering breaks down the rock into small sediments. Erosion takes the rock and send the sediments into another location, where they are deposited and then consolidated to form a sedimentary rock.
No, any type of rock can become sedimentary rock, because sedimentary rock refers to any rock that has been eroded, and pressure has been applied to it so as to solidify it from a granular state.
The most common rock that experiences weathering, is sedimentary rocks. Metamorphic and Igneous are unlikey to.
Clastic sedimentary rock is the usual type of rock formed from the products of rock weathering.
