actually you have 2 clues: you know that everything and i mean everything is fractal, so you know what to look for (ie:self similarities etc...) and it must obey :
fractal/constructal system:
The constructal law puts forth the idea that the generation of design (configuration, pattern, geometry) in nature is a physics phenomenon that unites all animate and inanimate systems, and that this phenomenon is covered by the Constructal Law stated by Adrian Bejan in 1996: "For a finite-size (flow) system to persist in time (to live), its configuration must evolve such that it provides easier access to the imposed currents that flow through it."
E=M3/4
It is called Kleiber's Law.
It states that the energy needed by an organism at rest (not doing any specific exercise), is not proportional to its mass, but sub-linear.
It can be attributed to many factors and one of them is that the more massive an organism/element/wave is, the less surface per volume it present. If the organism is represented par a sphere of diameter D, volume scale with D^3, but surface scales with D^2. But energy produced by the body is proportional to volume, while energy lost is proportional to external surface.
