apt-get installs ( install ) the listed programs. Therefore, the first option (with dkms) will install dkms on the system, and the second (without dkms) will simply not install dkms on the system.
And sudo simply runs the specified program ( apt-get ) as root, which is necessary when installing programs on the system.
And then you can install dkms with the command sudo apt-get install dkms
