The correct statement regarding the sediments that form sedimentary rocks is:
Igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks can all become sediments after years of erosion.
This is because the rock cycle allows for any type of rock (igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary) to be weathered and eroded into sediments, which can then undergo compaction and cementation to form sedimentary rocks.
