The main difference could well be a different source of authority for teaching although there may well be differences of opinion on this. From this different source of authority come major differences in teaching. The ultimate source of authority for Christians is The Bible. Although the Mormons also claim this as a source they also have the Book of Mormon and Doctrines and Covenants which they say add to and complete the revelation given in the Bible. They also claim that they believe the Bible. However, whenever there is a contradiction between the doctrines taught in the Bible and the doctrine of their other writings they always will side with their 'extra revelation' against what the Bible clearly teaches.
