"Eukaryote" roughly translates as "truly nucleated" and refers to organisms with a membrane-bound nucleus.
Such membrane-bound organelles are thought to have arisen via the invagination of the cell's own plasma membrane.
Other organelles such as the mitochondria and the chloroplast are believed to have once existed as separate organisms, but which were engulfed by other cells, forming a symbiotic relationship.
Gel electrophoresis is a technique used to separate DNA fragments (or other macromolecules, such as RNA and proteins) based on their size and charge. Electrophoresis involves running a current through a gel containing the molecules of interest.
