Excerpt from The Origin of Species
Charles Darwin

1 I must here introduce a short digression. In the case of animals and plants with separated sexes, it is of course obvious that two individuals must always unite for each birth; but in the case of hermaphrodites this is far from obvious. Nevertheless there is reason to believe that with all hermaphrodites, two individuals, either occasionally, or habitually, concur for the reproduction of their kind. This view was long ago doubtfully suggested by Sprengel, Knight, and Kolreuter. We shall presently see its importance; but I must here treat the subject with extreme brevity, though I have the materials prepared for an ample discussion.
In this sentence from the first paragraph of the passage, what does the word concur mean?

A) ignore
B) separate
C) understand
D) act together
