the square cube law in biology

Can anyone explain in simple terms the square cube law and how it applies to animals and people. I have seen it referenced to fictional beast, especially those who are absurdly large. But can anyone explain it what it actually means

Other people have explained the square cube law just fine, but in terms of biology, the mass of an animal affects how much it has to eat, how it breathes, what ecological niche it fills, and sometimes how it reproduces.
