The Torah reading for Shacharis (morning) on Yom Kippur is the beginning of the
parsha 'Acharei Mos' (Leviticus, Ch. 16), which describes the service in the
Tabernacle, and later in the Holy Temple, performed by the Kohanim (Priests) on
Yom Kippur.
The Torah reading for Mincha (afternoon) on Yom Kippur is a section taken from the
end of the same parsha (Leviticus, Ch. 18), which deals with moral standards, and
in particular, with an enumeration of forbidden relationships and marriages.
