The statement "Throughout much of the nineteenth century, Westerners' concept of the universe was based on the ideas of Isaac Newton" is True.Sir Isaac Newton was an English physicist and mathematician. He is most famous for his law of gravity. He was also a key driver in the scientific revolution of the 17th century. Amongst other theories, Newton postulated that the sun kept the planets in orbit by its gravitational pull. He also stated that the moon orbited around the earth.
