U+5B76 "孶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+5B76 "孶" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character classified under the "CJK Unified Ideographs" block, and it carries the meaning of "to breed" or "to multiply" in the context of living organisms, though it is a relatively rare and non-standard variant of the more common character "孳." Its structure consists of a top component resembling a child or offspring and a bottom component related to a "son" or "child" radical, reflecting its semantic association with reproduction and growth.
