Let's carefully examine the carbohydrate contents of the given fruits to determine which one would raise the blood sugar levels the least.

We have the following carbohydrate content information for each fruit:

- Apples: 17 grams
- Cherries: 19 grams
- Oranges: 21 grams
- Watermelons: 12 grams

To find the fruit that raises blood sugar the least, we need to identify the fruit with the lowest carbohydrate content among the options provided.

Now let's list out the carbohydrate contents again for clarity:

- Apples: 17 grams
- Cherries: 19 grams
- Oranges: 21 grams
- Watermelons: 12 grams

By comparing these values, we can see that:

- 17 grams (Apples)
- 19 grams (Cherries)
- 21 grams (Oranges)
- 12 grams (Watermelons)

Clearly, the fruit with the least amount of carbohydrates is Watermelons, with 12 grams of carbohydrates per serving.

Therefore, among apples, cherries, oranges, and watermelons, a serving of watermelons would raise the level of sugar in the blood by the least amount.
