A transistor in the right circuit, contributes a POWER GAIN by taking energy from an external power supply.

A transformer actually has losses but is primarily used for Impedance Matching. This is very useful in establishing the most efficient arrangements for transmitting power from the source to the load.

Impedance matching is an important function of all power transfer systems.

What is the basic difference between transistor as an amplifier and a step up transformer?

The output power of an amplifier is greater than its input power, whereas the output power of a transformer is almost the same as its input power. In other words, an amplifier increases acts to increase power, whereas a transformer only increases voltage.
