The Difference Between Semen and Pre-Seminal Fluid

Question
What is the difference between semen and pre-seminal fluid? When should one perform ablution, pray, and fast?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: semen necessitates a full ablution; because it comes from sexual intercourse or wet dreams, while pre-seminal fluid necessitates ablution and occurs just before intercourse, and God knows best.
