Sedimentary layers are conspicuous by the neighbors they keep.
There are two types of sedimentary layers; those that have formed and those that are today forming.
Over time they are compressed and thereby preserved.

How do sedimentary rocks get cemented together to form a solid mass from sediment?
This happens because the rock cycle keeps occuring and every time the rock cycle happens the sedimentary rock comes together better and will eventually be a solid mass of sediment
Over a long period of time the layers of sediment turn into?
It is sand. Edit: Over many thousands of years - sediment gets compressed and compacted into layers. The layers form rocks such as slate and coal.
What happens to sediment when it hits a boulder?
