Can someone please explain to me: If the posterior 1/3 of the tongue is developed from 3rd and 4th pharyngeal arches, why is it wrong to choose pharyngeal arch?

Pharyngeal arch is not same as pharyngeal floor, pharyngeal arch is mesoderm from which nerve artery muscle cartilage develop. Pharyngeal floor is from where tongue develops which is endoderm
