iOS is very similar to Mac OS X at the kernel level. The major differences would revolve around sandboxing, application privileges, etc. If you're curious about stuff that isn't necessarily iOS-specific, the Kernel Programming Guide provides an overview for a lot of Mach and BSD concepts, like the virtual memory system, how thread scheduling works, etc.
