A mystery shopper could carry out all the research tasks listed, including recording bathroom cleanliness, price negotiation, preventing age-inappropriate game sales, and assessing product quality like jelly distribution in doughnuts.

Step-by-step explanation:

A mystery shopper could indeed perform all of the research tasks mentioned: recording the cleanliness of bathrooms, negotiating with sellers on the price for an item, ensuring that children cannot buy M-rated video games, and recording the evenness of jelly in a doughnut.
