Statement i) is correct because in incomplete dominance both the alleles are expressed partially. So it is called partial dominance. In this process neither of the genes is completely dominant over the other allele. It results in a mixed combination.

Statements ii) is incorrect because pleiotropy  is the expression of multiple traits by a single gene not incomplete dominance. This is because in incomplete dominance two different alleles are expressed partially.

Option 1 is the correct answer.
