Desktops have expansion ports (PCI ports) where you can add new cards such as sound cards or network cards. Laptops often only have a single bay for this purpose.
Desktops tend to have better performance because they don't have to run on batteries. That means the processors and video card can be designed to use more power and can take up more space. Hard drives are similarly faster and have higher capacity (in general).
In general, its is much cheaper to build a high performance desktop PC than it is to build a high performance laptop due to the power, size, and heat constraints that a laptop has.
