Is a life estate terminated when the life tenant is placed in a nursing home due to alzheimers?

No. Possession of the property has nothing to do with how long a life tenancy lasts. The "life tenant" (who is the owner for life) could be in a nursing home, in prison for life, living in Antarctica for 50 years, whatever.
The life tenancy, by definition, does not ordinarily terminate until the person whose life measures the estate ownership passes away, in fact, or has been deemed by a court to have passed away, in law (e.g., missing at sea for 7 years, or perhaps brain-dead for 2 years).
However, a life estate can be transferred to others, and may be terminated if the "others" in the transfer happen to be exactly the same people who would ordinarily get it after the life tenant's death.

What is the difference between pre-terminated wiring and non-terminated wiring?
Pre terminated wires may mean one of a couple things. At least to my knowledge. Generally a pre terminated wire is a wire in use or that is connected thru in an operating device of some sort. The wiring in the state it came from the "assembly plant.' Non-terminated wiring generally refers to wiring that is not in use or not connected yet. "Terminated wires" are "connected wires." Pre-terminated could also refer to some wiring that already has the "connectors" placed on the wire. Not just a bare wire w/o connectors. Non-terminated could mean a piece of wire without "connectors" on it.
