Accept of your example sentence is 受け入れる but it's doesn't always mean so. Please don't part these verbs in 受け + other part. Each one is a verb and their translations are changed depending on the context. 受ける = catch, get, etc 受け付ける = receive, accept, take, etc 受け取る = get, receive, catch, take, etc There are many verbs with 受け: 受け止める、受け継ぐ、受け渡す、受け持つ、etc. It's better to understand and remenber with the whole sentence and translation, it's my opinion. I hope this was helpful.
