Broken pieces of what types of rock are deposited into layers and cemented together to form?
All types of rock can fragment, and with time, the fragments become deposited in layers which can become buried, then through heat and pressure become cemented together to form a material known as Cliche, which in turn can fuse together through heat and pressure to become what is known as Conglomerate.

How does an ingenous rock change into sedimentary rock?
Igneous rocks are formed when magma or lava cools and hardens. These rocks can either be weathered/broken down into smaller pieces to become sediment or they can be subjected to heat and pressure causing them to either melt or become metamorphic rocks. If the sediments become cemented together then the rock is a sedimentary rock.
