A sedimentary rock made up of rock fragments or particles of other rocks is called 'clastic'.
Conglomerate rocks are coarse grained sedimentary rocks wherein large rounded sediments are found. These rounded sediments are referred to as gravel.
Breccia is an inorganic land-derived sedimentary rock. It is clastic (fragmental), but not foliated. Breccia is composed of mostly quartz, feldspar, and clay minerals; it may contain fragments of other rocks and minerals.
Breccia is the type of sedimentary rock that is made of other fragmented rocks. The mineral that holds the fragments together can be made from the same rock material as the larger fragments, or from a different type of rock entirely.
These are known as clastic or detrital sedimentary rocks. Depending on the size of the clasts they may be claystones (< 4 micro m), siltstones (grain size between 4 and 64 micro m) or sandstones (grain size between 64 micro m and 2 mm). If formed of angular fragments larger than 2mm in a finer grained matrix, this type of rock is known as a breccia. If the fragments are rounded, and larger than 2mm then it is a conglomerate.
Detrital rocks are sedimentary rocks that are composed of particles of weathered and eroded igneous, metamorphic, or other sedimentary rocks that have been deposited, compacted, and cemented together. Sandstone, conglomerate, shale, and breccia are examples of detrital sedimentary rocks.
Conglomerate or Breccia. You'd have to specify the shape of the fragments and types of minerals.

Classic sedimentary rocks are made up a minerals, grains, and rock fragments from older rocks. Some examples of this kind of rock are sandstone, breccia, and shale.
No. The rocks you describe are clastic or detrital sedimentary rocks.

Breccia.
Detrital rocks are sedimentary rocks that are composed of particles of weathered and eroded igneous, metamorphic, or other sedimentary rocks that have been deposited, compacted, and cemented together. Sandstone, conglomerate, shale, and breccia are examples of detrital sedimentary rocks.
Clastic sedimentary rocks are those that are composed of cemented particles of other rocks. Examples are conglomerate, breccia, sandstone, and shale.
