Here in an example:
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combining_character

Two or more code points combined can form a "single character" when
rendered on screen or paper.

Sometimes you can replace those with a single "precomposed character" too.
The Unicode standard includes many of them, but not all.

Hope that helps.
