Below certain depths the heat and pressure will turn sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock.

Yes, geodes form in sedimentary rock. They also sometimes form in igneous rock. Use the link below to learn more.
Mudstone is the fine grained sedimentary rock that were clays or muds originally.
Cap rock. Resistant cap rock will help protect softer rock below it from erosion. Any rock type that is more resistant to erosion than the rock type below it is called a cap rock. For instance, it could be basalt (igneous) overlying limestone (sedimentary), or limestone (sedimentary) over shale (also sedimentary).

No. A rock formed below earth's surface as magma is an igneous rock.
Sedimentary rocks get transformed into metamorphic and eventually igneous rocks in deep earth's crust.

ORGANIC SEDIMENTARY ROCK`s : Is a type of sedimentary rock because sedimentary rock has three types of sedimentary rock called clastic , chemical , and organic sedimentary rock so yes ORGANIC SEDIMENTARY ROCK is a type of sedimentary rock..........................................
Clastic sedimentary rock.
Sedimentary rock can form in more than one way. The majority of sedimentary rock is clastic sedimentary rock, formed from the weathering and erosion of existing rock. The steps in its formation are listed below. Steps 4 and 5 are often listed together as the process of lithification.Weathering of pre-existing rock into smaller pieces.Erosion and transportation of weathered rock particles (sediments).Deposition of eroded sediments.Compaction of deposited sediments.Cementation of compacting sediments.For further explanation of sedimentary rock formation, see the related question below.
