The rock is eroded then the fragments from the erosion undergo sedimentary processes:
A sedimentary rock can become an igneous rock through the process of melting and solidification. If sedimentary rocks are subjected to high temperatures and pressures in the Earth's crust or mantle, they can melt and form magma. This magma can then cool and solidify to form igneous rocks.
Yes, when igneous rock (magma) has solidified and then gets subsequently eroded, the eroded particules can get blown or washed into rivers for example, and then can form sedimentary rocks further down the chain.
No. Igneous rock forms from the cooling of magma.
Sedimentary rocks, as a rule, must first undergo a change into a metamorphic rock (a process which can take hundred of thousands to millions of years), before they may become molten from subduction processes or contact with a body of magma, whereby the magma would cool and form an igneous rock.
No, sedimentary rock is formed from the deposition and compression of sediment such as sand, silt, and clay. Cooling magma forms igneous rock when it solidifies.
No. It's the Metamorphic rocks that melt and become magma.

The sedimentary rock melts,which causes magma. When the magma cools it becomes an igneous rock.

Sedimentary rock to change to Igneous rock by applying heat and pressure , which creates Metamorphic rock . Next , Metamorphic rock turns to Magma because it melts . Lastly you have to let the Magma cool and it becomes an Igneous rock . That is how Sedimentary rock changes to Igneous rock .
No. Igneous rock forms from the cooling of magma.
No, magma emplacement is not a sedimentary structure. It refers to the process of magma or molten rock moving and solidifying underground to form igneous rock bodies like plutons, dikes, or sills. Sedimentary structures are features that develop within sedimentary rocks, such as bedding, cross-bedding, or ripple marks.
It wouldn't have to in the case of an instant melting from a meteor impact. Normally though, the evolution of a magma from sedimentary rock would include a very long process involving the gradual introduction of heat and/or pressure, causing the sedimentary rock to first metamorophose into a different type of rock.

Magma emplacements or Batholith are not sedimentary structures.
