Reabsorbtion. Occuring more commonly within the nephron system than filtration, this is a form of active transport which takes the the useful substances for the body from the tubules and places them back into the blood filled capillaries.
Oleanders are shrubs, but they are _big_ shrubs. Most of the varieties in cultivation top out at 8 to 12 feet tall and about the same width. The wild form, and some of the older cultivars used for windbreaks top out at 20 x 20 feet.
Oleander poisoning occurs when someone eats the flowers or chews the leaves or stems of the oleander or yellow oleander plant. This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual poison exposure.
