What makes something being of 3D is self-awareness.
A 2D entity will move from being a mind/body complex to being a mind/body/spirit complex upon achieving self-awareness.
But the body in itself is a vehicule, it is a biological computer that follows it's programmation. The soul through the mind by being self-aware, has the ability to change this programmation, but if not done the body is nothing more than a very complex computer.
If you don't consciously tend to your basic needs, your body will wither away.

I don't necessarily agree with Ra's notion that a 2D entity is only a mind/body complex, I think the spirit part is still there but not included simply because it is not aware of itself.
