The statement 'transistors performed functions similar to vacuum tubes, but they were larger and more power hungry' is false.
In the field of computers and technology, transistors can be described as semiconductor devices through which electrical signals can be amplifies.
As they are semi-conductors, they have electrons in it. They are not large, rather very small devices and do not need much power.
On the other hand, vacuum tubes do not have any kind of particles inside them. It is used at times when a no pressure environment needs to be created for some scientific purpose. Hence, the statement above is false.
