Transformer tanks are fitted with a 'breather' vent, which allows air to be drawn in, or expelled, as the oil level varies. A silica gel cell is located in the the vent's tubing to ensure that any air drawn into the transformer is dry.
No! A transformer changes voltage levels, not power levels. In fact, the output power of a transformer is actually a little lower than its input power, due to the efficiency of a transformer.
Power transformer is used step up or down the voltage for the electricity transmission while furnace transformer is used to melt the metals and ores in the electric furnace.
A; Terminology is not correct a transformer is not really a source but rather a device to transform one source of power to some power that can be used as required minus efficiency of power transfer
A transformer can perform this function.

"Electric" transformers are used in the electric power system for many things. I wonder if you mean "auto" transformer. Transformers are used to step up/down voltage and currents, to provide a ground reference, to inject signals onto power lines, to sample high voltages and currents, etc.
it won't get as hot
An electric transformer does not send electricity to the meter it supplies a source of power that is requested by the demand of the load. The meter is a device which totals the amount of power that you use. This is the amount that you are billed for. If your electrical bill is high only you can reduce it by decreasing the load demand.
A Buchholz relay is designed to detect a failing oil-filled power transformer. It will automatically disconnect the transformer and produce an alarm signal.
The electric motor changes electric energy into mechanical energy.
To convert ac electric power into mechanical power.
It depends on the load. A good transformer has over 90% (some as high as 99%) efficiency. So the power drawn by it is a function of the power in the load, plus a small amount due to losses in the transformer.
